Frequently Asked Questions – US Visa from Dubai

How do I get a US tourist visa (B2) from Dubai? Contact Visa Doctor for a consultation, complete the DS-160 form, pay the USD 185 MRV fee, and we will help you secure an interview at the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi or Consulate in Dubai — often within 7 days through our appointment coordination. How do I get a US business visa (B1) from Dubai? The process is the same as the tourist (B2) visa application, but you will also need supporting documents such as an invitation letter from the US host company and evidence of your business activity in the UAE. How long does a US B1/B2 visa take from Dubai? Interview wait times at the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi vary widely, and during peak demand they have stretched to as long as 2 years for a standard appointment. Through Visa Doctor’s appointment coordination, eligible applicants can often be booked for an interview in as little as 7 days, so it is always worth checking with our consultants before assuming a long wait is unavoidable. Can I get a 10-year US visa from Dubai? Many nationalities are eligible for a 10-year multiple entry B1/B2 visa. However, the duration granted is entirely at the discretion of the consular officer. Our consultants can advise you based on your nationality. Do UAE residents need to attend an in-person interview for a US visa? Yes. Most applicants must attend a personal interview at the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi or the US Consulate General in Dubai. Some applicants may qualify for an interview waiver — our team will advise you on your eligibility. What is the US visa rejection rate? The US visa refusal rate varies by nationality. Strong financial evidence, proof of ties to the UAE, and a well-prepared application significantly improve your chances of approval.
