Do Bermudian citizens need a visa for Dubai?
Bermuda doesn't appear on its own in the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa exemption list, so the rule depends on the passport you travel on.
With a British citizen passport, the United Kingdom's visa-free entry applies. For a British Overseas Territories citizen passport or any other passport type, confirm with ICP or ask us before you book. We'll check your passport and tell you which visa you need.
Entry rules are based on the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa exemption list, checked on 21 October 2026. Rules can change, so confirm with ICP or your airline before you travel. MOFA list · ICP

Which passport do you hold?
- British citizen passport: the United Kingdom's visa-free rules apply.
- British Overseas Territories citizen (BOTC) passport: confirm with ICP or ask us before booking.
- Any other passport: open that country's page from the list below, or send us your passport details on WhatsApp.
Single or multiple entry: which do Bermudian citizens need?
A single-entry visa ends when you leave the UAE. The 14 Days Dubai Visa (single entry) costs AED 519 (about BMD 141).
A multiple-entry visa lets you leave and come back while it's valid, for example a day trip to Oman or a stopover on your way home. The 30 Days Multiple Entry Visa (multiple entry) costs AED 1469 (about BMD 400).
If you're only flying in and out once, single entry is the better value.
Visa validity vs length of stay
These are two different limits. On the 14 Days Dubai Visa, validity is 58 Days: the window from the issue date in which you must enter the UAE. The stay is 14 Days: how long you can remain after you arrive.
Plan your travel date inside the validity window, and leave or extend before your stay runs out to avoid overstay fines.
Why Dubai visa applications from Bermuda get delayed or refused
UAE immigration makes the final decision, and no agency can guarantee approval. Most delays we see come from avoidable issues:
- Blurry, cropped or glare-covered passport scans.
- A photo that isn't recent, has a coloured background or shows glasses or shadows.
- A name spelled differently from the passport's machine-readable line.
- A passport with less than six months' validity left on the arrival date.
- A previous overstay, absconding report or unresolved case in the UAE.
- Applying only a day or two before the flight.
After your visa is approved
- Check that the name, passport number and nationality on the e-visa match your passport exactly.
- Keep a printed or saved copy; airlines check it before you board.
- Immigration officers in Dubai may ask for your return ticket and hotel booking or host's address.
- Note your last day of stay and leave or extend before it to avoid overstay fines.
- Track your application any time on our Track Visa page with your application ID.
Paying from Bermuda
All our prices are in UAE dirhams (AED). If your card is in BMD, your bank converts the amount and may add a foreign transaction fee, so the final charge can be slightly different from the BMD estimates on this page.
