My son who is on a UK passport arrived via Abu Dhabi on Etihad. He wants to stay 2 more weeks but we are having a nightmare trying to find out where to go to get this done. We live in Dubai and no one in Dubai will do it. We tried the aiport in Abu Dhabi but they wont do it either and no one can tell us where to go. The website is terrible and no one answers the phone. Please help. right its easy you either drive to oman for the day out, or go to immigration in abu dhabi, immigration is on 19th st al saada road, on corner of 2nd st (airport road) right by Evangelical Church/BSAK (british school al khubairat), st joseph's church/st andrews church area BBee, am i right in saying though that you get 10 days grace period anyway and then the extra 4 days @ 100 dirhams a day, isnt it 590 dirhams now for an extention, so saving and also saving the hassle of finding the office and waiting??? Just a thought.........might be wrong though xx it used to be 500 dhs it may have gone up. the visa used to be more than 30 days because of the grace period, but it really depends on who you get at the airport they may give you grace period or they may charge you. it was 100dhs a day overstay fine, but again that may be different now. best to try and get it sorted or just expect to pay whatever the fine they say etc. finding immigration is easy its on the main road, i can give you very detailed directions from anywhere if you need them.
