Dubai - transit visa or other type of visa?

Upvote:1

In both your scenarios, you will require a transit visa.

In the first case, as your transit is more than 24 hours, so you don't qualify as a transit passenger. Irrespective of the fact that you have two tickets; the fact that you stay is longer than 24 hour disqualifies you as a transit passenger.

For you second scenario - you normally would not need a visa, however as you are traveling on two separate itineraries you will need to show eligibility to be landed in Dubai before you are allowed to board in India. Your baggage would be checked to Dubai only.

Lets say you are traveling with cabin bags only. You still have the problem that you don't have a boarding pass for your Canadian flight.

Obtaining a 96-hour transit visa is simple; the only real requirement is a hotel reservation; and of course proof of travel. The minimum transit time for eligibility for a transit visa is 6 hours.

You can apply for it once you land in Dubai.
