No bar on having visas of other countries

Q: I have a Dubai employment visa. Can I also have a Kuwaiti employment visa? Is it permitted to have employment visas of two countries on the same passport at the same time? Should I cancel my UAE visa to take up a job in Kuwait?

A: Federal law No. 6 for the year 1973 has not excluded holders of other countries' residency visas from entering the UAE. The laws in the UAE are enacted with the knowledge that many of its residents may need to reside in more than one country. Hence, there is no conflict of interest in having more than one residency visa on a person's passport.

However, since Qatar has diplomatic issues with UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, there are restrictions of having Qatar visa along with UAE/ Saudi Arabia/ Bahrain visa.
