Anything from AED13000-22000 lots of factors to take into consideration though and bear in mind the job market is still quiet and you will be competing with people from other countries who will take lower salaries

Are you from a schengen country? if so you will need to remain out of the UAE for 180 days and you cannot speed this up as it is an immigration rule and he would not be able to sponsor you for a visit visa. If not schengen let us know where your passport is from

Yes it is safe. No bogeyman is waiting to kidnap you.... JBR is always busy imagine Marbella along the sea front. Yes it is cooler in the morning.

I went through a similar thing and was informed by the rent committee that i didn't have to let anyone in and that the 2 day rule isn't law. I would tell the agents and LL when you are happy to allow people to come round and fix times so they have to work around you I certainly wouldn't let them have my tel number and would go ballistic if this was given out without my consent.

I always see ladies getting them done in tips and toes. They cost around AED600 I had them done years ago and hated them. They felt spiky, were too much maintenance and if it makes sense not natural against my own lashes. I am also a fair skinned person so they looked a bit silly and too long. I now use false ones and after some practice can put them on in the dark. Here is a link with other salons and prices. Have you tried eye lash tinting them getting them semi permanently curled. Less hassle and half the cost http://www.timeoutdubai.com/bodyandmind/features/65037-5-places-to-get-eyelash-extensions-in-dubai

Kids need germs to build up their immune systems. As a child we jumped in puddles, played in the mud and fell off rope swings and climbing frames. Unless they have an outbreak of legionnaires or typhoid then i wouldn't worry. They are going to be around kids 24/7 who have coughs, colds and all sorts of germs

Hi! Sorry to bother you. I am planning to relocate to Sharjah next month, but I had no idea that Alcohol license are provided by Sharjah Police. currently I am having Dubai License since 2006 bu...
Hi I found this thread for Sharjah licence on another forum irst get your company to issue you a letter saying that they don’t have any problem issuing you an alcohol permit. It some what like an NOC and it must contain your salary amount. Once you have this letter, go to the Dubai Police Head Quarters, that’s just outside the Al Qiyadah metro station which is on the green line. Go to Certificate and Permits room which is just behind a metal detector. Ask the man on the left in that office to issue you an NOC. He will ask you to write a letter containing your name, passport details, visa issued from and saying you’re a resident of Sharjah requesting the Dubai police to get you an NOC. He will ask you for two passport snaps, a copy of your passport & visa page and Emirates id. One submitted he will tell you to come after three to four days to collect the same. Please note they open at 7:30 AM and close by 2 PM from Sundays to Thursdays only. You don’t need to pay for this letter. Now once you get the NOC from the Dubai Police station, go to Sharjah Police station which is at Rolla. This office too is open only from Sunday to Thursday 8 AM to 1 PM. Tell the police guard at the entrance you want to obtain a liquor license. He will ask you for your Emirates ID and will give you a pass in return. Go to the first floor, office number 6. The man on the right side of this office will give you a form for which you need to pay 100 AED. Take this form and get it stamped by your company. Now go back to the police station with a copy of your Emirates ID, passport & visa and your tenancy contract. The original company letter, NOC from the Dubai police station and three passport snaps. It’s best you take all this when you go to collect the form too. He will then tell you to go and pay 500 AED at the cashier which is at the entrance. Get the slip from the cashier and give it the officer on the first floor. He will then take all your documents and tell you to come the next to collect the same. When you go to collect the same, please carry your receipt as a proof that youve paid for the same and collect your mini booklet.

There are so many Dubai based hairdressers and mobile hairdressers doing hair extensions. I know of probably 20 places andhey work in every area. I have used micro rings/keratin bonds and now only use tape ones Many ladies bring their own in from the UK ( myself included) and pay for the hairdresser to put them in thus saving money. Most ladies have a preferred hair salon/hairdresser and will remain with them. We are very loyal to our hairdressers here

If anyone has experience dealing with Rental- Disputes Committee on this issue and could advice it would help. Its not free to login a complain (3.5% of the rent). LL is Egyptian and has lot of construction companies... So it can be a big fight with no result... would appreciate if someone has win a case ?? thanks I know of many people who won their cases however the compensation given was only the difference in the moving costs not a full years rent as people used to state It doesnt matter if you LL has construction companies the law is the law You have to pay to open the case and if you win you will get this back You need to provide the following and you can arrange an appointment as the Rent Committee. Details are below Documents required Plaintiff name with designation (either lessor, lessee, landlord or occupant) with current address The facts of the dispute Original tenancy contract Notarized PoA (Power of Attorney) in favour of person authorized to represent the plaintiff Copies of cheques, if any, that were submitted to the landlord.

A bit of a random question - if you’ve been a helicopter pilot and now want to train as a commercial pilot do any of the airlines help with the training (financial as well as flying hours)? I understand this might tie you to the company but is it still an option? Any help would be appreciated. pprune is the best place to go to however i don't think any of the airlines help with financials. Expect to pay a large amount to train

6 of us are driving to Muscat on the long weekend, planning to leave on Thursday 30th November (very early in the morning!!). I am looking for any advice on which border crossing to take, how long it will take etc. We are all residents of the UAE, is the oman visa still ~50dhs? Do we have to be on the list of approved professions? Any advice for this road trip including routes to take and places to see would be greatly appreciated :) The only thing i know is that the cost to cross increased a few years back and now costs almost AED200 each. You need your Passport, do not carry alcohol and you don't need to be on a list of approved professions.
