Destination Guide

The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, with Dubai and Abu Dhabi offering the widest range of hospitality, security, retail, aviation and business opportunities. The culture is multicultural and generally welcoming, while Islamic traditions influence dress, public behaviour, working hours and major holidays. Dubai provides a modern lifestyle with beaches, shopping, dining, desert activities and excellent international transport, although rent and daily expenses can be high. Employers normally sponsor a successful overseas employee’s work permit and residence visa; medical testing, Emirates ID registration and document attestation may be required. Do not work on a tourist visa. Confirm whether the package includes accommodation, transport, meals, insurance, flights and gratuity before relocating. Respect local laws, avoid public intoxication and carry valid documents. Weather is hot for much of the year, so prepare for air-conditioned workplaces and intense summer heat.
