Change of Status

An in-country status change saves a flight and a hotel. We confirm whether your case qualifies before you book anything.

A change of status converts a visit or tourist entry into a residency entry permit without the applicant leaving the UAE. It is not available for every visa type or every nationality, and the eligibility rules change from time to time.

We check your current entry stamp, tell you honestly whether an in-country change is possible, and if it is, handle the application. If it is not, we explain the alternative so you can plan the trip properly rather than discovering the problem at the airport.

Documents Required

  • Original passport with current entry stamp
  • New entry permit Issued under the new sponsor.
