Pakistani tourists traveling to the UAE have been encouraged to buy return tickets from the same airline to streamline their travel process.

Airlines and Pakistani officials emphasize the importance of meeting all visa requirements, which include proof of accommodation, sufficient funds, and return tickets.

SereneAir, a Pakistani airline, recommends that passengers opt for return tickets with them, as tickets from other airlines may necessitate additional approvals during check-in.

Similarly, Airblue has stated that travelers with return tickets from different airlines would need to obtain prior approval from UAE authorities before boarding.

Travelers must also ensure they have a valid return ticket within their visa duration, confirmed hotel bookings, or proof of residence if staying with friends or family.

A minimum of $500 (approximately AED 1,835) in cash or a credit card in the traveler’s name is required to cover their stay.
