Changes to Application for Indian Visa in Fujairah UAE

People in Fujairah continue to be provided with a service for obtaining visas for India from the Consulate General of India-Dubai, but there are some changes.

New Office
A special Indian Passport and Visa Services office in conjunction with Empost has been established within the Indian Social Club (see this map for the Faseel location).

Abdul Aziz and Tojo Jestin work different shifts in the Empost Office which is open to the public between 8.00am and 8.00pm every day except Friday.

They can be reached on this Toll Free Number: 600522229

Documents Needed for Visa Application
UAE Nationals need to furnish the following:
* Completed visa application form (available from the office)
* Two recent passport size photos
* Passport copy

UAE Residents
* Completed visa application form (available from the office)
* Two recent passport size photos
* Passport (original not photocopy) with photocopies of relevant pages with the visa page)
* A No Objection letter from the sponsor

UAE Non-Residents
* Completed visa application form (available from the office)
* Two recent passport size photos
* Passport (original not photocopy) with photocopies of relevant pages with the visa page)
* Visitor’s Visa copy (original to be shown)
* Reference form for faxing with clear address in the home country

Apart from size (passport size), no details are given about the background colours but one would think the usual details for a passport photo apply.

Empost Form
An Empost Form now must be filled in that requests the following information:
Marital status
Spouse’s name
Father’s name
Mother’s name
Identification Mark
Profession
Previous nationality
Name of Sponsor
Address of Sponsor
Permanent address
Phone numbers-office and residence

Cost
A three month single entry visa is available at a cost of Dh240. Unfortunately no multiple visas appear to be issued to applicants in the UAE.

Accuracy
These details are accurate at the time of writing but applicants should consult the office to see if any details have altered.
