✈️ Onward or return ticket
A confirmed flight ticket in and out of the UAE.
🏨 Accommodation details
Your hotel booking or the address of your host in the UAE.

Ivorian applicants are often asked for a bank statement showing you can support your stay. We advise what to prepare so a weak document does not trigger a refusal.
You won't need

Each traveller, including children, needs a separate eVisa application. Dual nationals must enter and leave the UAE on the same passport used to apply. Some cases may require additional documents.
⚠️ Plan your exit date. Since February 2026 the overstay grace period has been removed. A fine of AED 50 per day accrues from the day after your permitted stay ends, so make sure you leave the UAE in time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dubai Visa FAQ for Ivorian Citizens
Real questions from Ivorian applicants, answered
Yes. Ivorian passport holders need a pre-arranged UAE tourist eVisa. There is no visa-free entry or visa on arrival, and it is valid across all seven emirates.
West African applications face closer financial scrutiny. Weak or unclear proof of funds is the most common refusal reason, so we guide exactly what to show before we submit.
French documents are usually accepted, but a clear, recent statement matters most. If a certified translation helps your case, we advise you in advance.
A passport valid at least six months, a recent photo, a return or onward ticket and your accommodation details, plus proof of funds if requested.
For Ivorian applicants we offer Standard within 12 working days, Priority within 9, and Express within 6. Apply from Ivory Coast at least 15 days before travel where possible.
Payment is in US dollars, so for Ivorian applicants the CFA franc amount depends on your card rate on the day. Any major card, Apple Pay or Google Pay works.
Yes. Every Ivorian traveller, including infants and minors, needs a separate eVisa application, even a child included on a parent's passport. In some cases, for Ivory Coast applicants, a birth or marriage certificate may be requested to confirm the family relationship.
Your approved eVisa arrives as a PDF by email and is also available from your visa portal. For Ivorian travellers we recommend carrying a printout for airline check-in and on arrival, with a copy on your phone as a backup. This applies to every eVisa issued for Ivory Coast.
You must leave the UAE before your permitted stay ends. Since February 2026 the grace period has been removed, and a fine of AED 50 per day accrues from the day after your stay expires, so Ivorian travellers from Ivory Coast should plan the departure date carefully.
No. UAEVisaOnline.ae is a private visa-assistance service operated by Travel Rox, Inc., not affiliated with the UAE government.
