Visa requirements for United Arab Emirati citizens
![](/w/images/thumb/1/10/United_Arab_Emirates_Passport_Cover.png/300px-United_Arab_Emirates_Passport_Cover.png)
Visa requirements for UAE citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of the United Arab Emirates. Emirati citizens do not need a visa to enter other member states of the GCC. They also have the right to take up jobs in those countries. Similarly, citizens of other GCC states do not need a visa to enter UAE. In 2015, Emirati citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 114 countries and territories, ranking the Emirati passport 40th in the world according to the Visa Restrictions Index.[1] Emirati passport is one of the 5 passports with the most improved rating since 2006.[2] The Schengen Area introduced visa free access for Emirati citizens for 90 days, from 7 May 2015. The UK introduced electronic visa waiver (EVW) on 1 January 2014.[3][4]
