Destination Guide

The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but a federation of seven emirates, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah. Hospitality, tourism, aviation, retail, construction, healthcare, technology and finance offer strong employment opportunities, with hotels and resorts regularly recruiting engineering, maintenance and guest-service staff. The culture combines Islamic traditions, Emirati heritage and a highly international population; modest dress and respectful behaviour are appreciated. Lifestyle choices range from modern city living and shopping to beaches, desert activities and cultural attractions. Employers usually sponsor work visas, residence permits and medical testing for overseas employees; Emirati nationals have different employment and support arrangements. Relocating workers should confirm salary, accommodation, transport, insurance, annual leave and end-of-service benefits in writing. Costs are highest in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, while other emirates may offer more affordable housing.
