Dubai Visa Lottery Application Form is for all and sundry meaning that your marital status (Single, Married, Divorced, Widowed, Separated, etc.) is not a barrier and the good thing is you are offered equal opportunity.
1. Gather the Required Documents.
Your first step is to ensure that you have all the requirements. Here is a list of the documents required for a Dubai Visa Lottery application in Nigeria.
An original international passport valid for more than 6 (Six) months (you cannot apply for a visa that is less than 6 months old)
Passport copies: Photo page and Bio page (both must be done in color), profession page, expiry page, and any other special endorsement page.
A colored passport photograph with your full name and passport number written on its reverse side
Emirates Airline confirmed ticket.
Color copy of the valid CERPAC and residence permit visa (for Non-Nigerian Nationals only).
PLEASE NOTE: Other documents will be required depending on which travel criteria you meet (read on for more details about this).
2. Check Your Eligibility.
Once you have gotten all the requirements, your next step is to see if you meet any of the following criteria for traveling to Dubai. If you don’t meet at least one of these requirements, your visa application will be denied.
Travel record: You have traveled at least once in the last 2 (two) years to any of UAE, UK, Schengen countries, Australia, New Zealand, or Canada OR you hold a valid visa for any of those countries. (You will be asked to produce the pages in your passport where you had the visa stamped.)
Financial records: You can produce an original letter from your bank stating that you have a bank account in Nigeria and that you have enough funds for your stay in Dubai. If you can meet this requirement, you will also need to produce your original bank statement for the past 6 months with the bank seal and signature as well as your salary slips with your employer’s permission and signature (or seal and signature of the company sponsoring your trip — if it’s a sponsored trip). Alternatively, you can make a security deposit equivalent to $1,500 (this is refundable upon your return to Nigeria and after producing the entry and exit stamp in the UAE).
You are invited by an immediate family member residing in Dubai on family status. (This is valid for the spouse, children below 21 years, and parents above 60 years of age.) If you’re travelling to Dubai by meeting this condition, you will be required to produce an invitation letter with a copy of the labour contract attested by the Emirates Commercial Visa Section in Dubai AND marriage certificate in case of invitation for spouse or birth certificate in case of invitation for children.
You are a student travelling without your parents. In this case, you will be required to produce a NOC letter from your parents, a photo identity of your parents or guardian, and your student ID card as well as the address details of your relative in the UAE.
3. Decide what type of Dubai Visa Lottery you need.
Cost of Dubai visa from Nigeria
The tourist visa (30 days visa) costs $82, the 14 days visa costs $110, and the 96 hours visa costs $69. Note that all the fees are inclusive of service charges and tax.
4. Complete your application form.
Download the Dubai Visa Lottery application form online. Complete the form carefully, providing accurate information. Ensure that your passport photos to be attached are of the specified dimensions (4.3cm x 5.5cm) and are set on a white background.
After filling the form, attach all supporting documents required as per the checklist in the form. Incompletely filled applications or those with missing documents are not accepted.
5. Submit your form.
Visit the Dubai visa application centre with your documents, form, and other requirements. The centre is located at Block 94, plot 23, Providence Street, Lekki – Epe Expressway, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.
The documents to be taken along to the centre in addition to the required documents listed above include:
Photocopy of your confirmed airline ticket.
Photocopies of the first and last two pages of your international passport
Note that submission of Dubai visa applications is accepted at the centre between 8.00am and 3.00 pm each day.
6. Track your application
After submitting your visa application, give 3-4 working days for your visa to be processed. During the waiting period, you can track the status of your application.
Additional points to note: You can apply for your visa at most 2 months before the date of travel since the visa is valid for just 58 days from the date of issue.
The Dubai Visa Lottery is a single entry visa
Your entry and exit into the United Arab Emirates must be through the Dubai airport only. But while in the country, you’re allowed to visit any part of it.
You can apply for a Dubai Visa Lottery through a travel agent, tour company, or resident in the UAE. You can also apply through Emirates Airlines — but with the condition of booking a return ticket with the airline.
