UAE Embassy in Pakistan is introducing a new visa entry system that will take effect from June 2, 2025. This move is aimed at improving the visa application process for Pakistani citizens and ensuring smoother, more organized services at the visa center.
As per the new guidelines, applicants will now need to show a verified biometric appointment code before they are allowed to enter the UAE visa center. Without this code, no one will be given access to the facility, regardless of whether they have completed the online application or not.
In order to receive the appointment code, applicants must first pay a non-refundable fee of $69 at any Bank Alfalah branch across the country. Once the payment is made, applicants are required to keep the original bank receipt safe, as it must be presented during the visa appointment.
For those who have completed the online visa application but haven’t received the appointment code, the embassy advises contacting the EIMASS support center at +971 2 418 6999.
After the code is verified, it will be sent via SMS or email. Applicants will then be able to choose their preferred appointment slot through the official EIMASS portal using their passport number and code.
On the day of the visit, all applicants must bring the original receipt, required documents, and photocopies of all uploaded forms.
This new system is designed only for biometric checks and document verification tied to visa processing. The UAE Embassy hopes these changes will bring more transparency and efficiency to the visa process for Pakistani travelers.
