Job Seeker Visa

The UAE Job Seeker Visa, also called the Job Exploration Entry Visa, is a temporary visa that lets skilled professionals and recent graduates search for employment in the UAE for 60, 90, or 120 days without a local sponsor. It's a short-term, single-entry visa for job hunting only, requiring proof of qualifications and financial means to support your stay. If you find a job, you must exit the UAE or convert your visa to an employment visa before the 60, 90, or 120 days expire, as working on this visa is not permitted. 
Nationals of certain countries are eligible for a visa-free entry or a visa on arrival (e.g., some Indian nationals with a valid US visa or Green Card may be eligible).
