The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but it is a popular Gulf destination with coastal cities, beaches and resort communities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Hospitality, tourism, aviation, retail, facilities management, construction and healthcare provide many employment opportunities, particularly for experienced international candidates. The culture combines Emirati traditions and Islamic values with a highly diverse expatriate population. Dress should be modest in public and local laws and customs must be respected. Lifestyle options range from modern shopping, dining and entertainment to desert activities, water sports and cultural attractions. Most expatriate employees require employer-sponsored residence and work visas; working without the correct permit is not allowed. Employers commonly assist with visas, medical testing, Emirates ID processing and relocation arrangements. Accommodation, transport and health insurance should be confirmed before accepting an offer. Summers are extremely hot, while winter is generally pleasant.
