The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is reportedly issuing around 30,000 visas to Pakistani nationals every month. The development signals improving diplomatic relations and renewed travel opportunities.
According to diplomatic sources, online visa approvals have returned to earlier levels following months of uncertainty.
UAE Visa Processing Returns to Normal
Sources revealed that UAE authorities issue approximately 30,000 visas monthly through online channels.
Travel agents also process additional visa applications beyond this figure.
The improvement comes after Pakistani applicants faced delays, stricter checks, and concerns about possible visa restrictions.
However, Pakistani officials have repeatedly denied reports of a complete UAE visa ban.
The latest development suggests a more positive environment for eligible Pakistani travelers.
Sources Report Decline in Deportations
Diplomatic sources also discussed recent deportations involving Pakistani nationals.
They claimed that approximately 3,500 Pakistanis had faced deportation in recent months over alleged violations linked to regional tensions.
However, the report said no Pakistani nationals had faced forced departure in recent weeks.
The sources credited improved understanding among expatriates and diplomatic engagement for the progress.
Pakistan-UAE Relations Strengthen
The report highlighted the role of UAE Ambassador Salem Mohammed Al Zaabi in strengthening bilateral relations.
It also estimated that around 2.2 million Pakistanis work in the UAE.
Overseas Pakistanis contribute significantly to Pakistan’s economy through remittances.
Meanwhile, bilateral trade reportedly stands near $8 billion, covering energy, consumer products, and investments.
The improving visa situation could benefit Pakistani workers, families, and business travellers.
However, visa approval remains subject to eligibility, documentation, and UAE immigration regulations.
Applicants should verify current requirements through official UAE immigration channels before making travel arrangements.
