Following the change in UAE visa regulations at the start of October 2022, the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security has published the new fines for visa overstay for both visit visas and resident visas.
Previously the overstay fine for the visit visas was 100 AED and now it has been reduced to 50 AED per day.
The overstay fine for resident visas is now also 50 AED per day a rise from the previous amount of 25 AED.
This means the new system unified the amount of UAE visa overstay fine to 50 AED per day for any type of visa violator.
