What Do You Need To Travel To Dubai? | Dubai Requirements

Now that you are reading this article, I know that you are planning to buy a flight ticket to Dubai and pack your luggage.

I completely understand your feelings. I was in the same mood a few months ago, and I was very happy to travel to Dubai, but I didn’t know what I needed to travel to Dubai.

By asking my friends who had traveled to Dubai before me, I found out what I should bring to travel to this city. In this article from Traveling Topic, I intend to share my experience with you and my friends in an article entitled “What do you need to travel to Dubai?”. If you like to pack your traveling bags, start reading.

What do you need to travel to Dubai?

If you have never traveled to Dubai before, you may be confused about what you need for this trip. All you have to do is trust me and follow my advice.

Passport and visa

The most important thing you need to travel to Dubai is a valid passport and visa. Before traveling, check that your passport has not expired.

Try to get a UAE visa before traveling to this country so that you don’t have any problems at the time of arrival.

Sunscreen

If you plan to go to the beaches of Dubai during the day or go on a safari in the desert, then you should apply sunscreen to the whole face, hands, and any part of the body that is exposed to the sun.

Also, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends that you use sunscreen that blocks both UVA and UVB rays when traveling to Dubai. According to this academy, your minimum SPF should be 30. Remember to reapply sunscreen every two hours or after each shower.

Scarf or shawl

When I was about to go to Grand Bur, I saw women at the entrance who were not allowed to enter the mosque. After a little research, I found out that to enter mosques and holy places in Dubai, women must cover their hair with a scarf and wear appropriate clothing.

Many celebrities in the world have also faced the same problem during their visit to the mosques of the UAE. I have mentioned some examples of them in the article “Selena Gomez and Rihanna in UAE“.

All kinds of swimwear

The closer you get to the beach, the less restrictions there are on your coverage. If you plan to sunbathe and swim in the sea, you can wear shorts or a bikini.

Desert hiking clothing

For those who want to go on a safari in the desert of Dubai, there are no restrictions on clothing, but to avoid insect bites and sunburn, take a white dress with you to Dubai which covers your body.

Due to the high importance of this topic, I have already written a special article on “What To Wear For Desert Safari Dubai” during my visit to the Dubai Desert, which you can read to understand this topic better.

Clothes for parties, shopping, and restaurants

For men, jeans and a T-shirt, and for women, a dress is enough to attend shopping centers, clubs, and restaurants in Dubai.

If you plan to go to Dubai’s clubs and shopping centers every night and want to know exactly what you should put in your luggage, read the article “Dubai Mall Dress Code“.

Mosquito repellent cream or spray

When you are visiting the beauty of the desert or the magnificent sunsets of the city, you will see small and annoying mosquitoes that may bother you. If you don’t want to scratch your body during your trip to Dubai, it’s better to bring mosquito repellent cream or spray.

Other required equipment

In order not to make this article too long, I have included other essential items for traveling to Dubai in the table below so that you can see them all in one place.

In summary

I tried to describe all the things you need to pack your suitcase. Pay attention to the fact that if you have a special disease and take medicine, you must have a medical prescription for your medicine. Otherwise, it will be a problem for you when you enter Dubai airport.

In your opinion, what other equipment should you take with yourself to Dubai? Please write me your comments.
