Polonia / TRAVEL TO DUBAI - VISA for a POLE? [29]

cześć Primaverka84

Hopefully i can help you out, I live in UAE and my fiance is also Polish, I am Indian (Goan) by origin. We both planned to visit Goa(India) to see my family and parents. Firstly she will visit me in Dubai and then we both planned to visit my home in Goa together. Polish nationals can get a Dubai visit visa from hotels or from any travel company in UAE or local sponsor. I already arranged her a 30 days tourist travel visa. Also i have booked her tickets. She is flying from POZ to DXB via Germany with lufthansa and then we both are flying from DXB to Goa India via air India.

The return flight i booked such way that she can fly with me until Dubai and i will stay in Dubai while she will transfer to Lufthansa flight which departs in 3 to 4 hrs to Poznan

Hence she doesn't need any visit or transit visa to come to Dubai as she wont leave the airport rather stay inside the airport and board Lufthansa via Transfer desk Boarding pass for Lufthansa in Dubai at the Transfer desk.

While She Checks in Goa(India) airport for Dubai (Departure) she would rather need to check in at the transfer counter indicating them she has a second Transfer flight in Dubai and get a transfer code with Boarding pass so that her luggage is routed from air India flight to Lufthansa flight automatically, If she doesn't do that her luggage would be out waiting for her on the belt on Dubai airport.:((( that's BAD

(Transit Visa(Formerly called 16days visit visa) or visit visa is needed on Dubai airport if the applicant plans to leave the airport to see Dubai (UAE) or in case the applicants flight is on the other airport in UAE or next terminal in any of the Emirates.)

Hence Please Note: when booking is done with two different airline(eg.POZ-DUBAI-GOA) you need to plan trip 3 to 4 hrs prior departure at transit terminal and also TRANSFER counter at the departure has to be informed about the second Connecting airline.

This way you could save until 50 percent prices for full trip which would be around 6000AED

Also its possible to book flights with Lufthansa with there partner airlines in one document ticket where they will specify routing(connecting) and its the easiest way but would cost you double the amount approx: 12000AED

If you have that much budget to spend you are most welcome to book as a single document with any travel agency.

Else to save your penny, you could book two different tickets from two different airline online with the above advice in mind. That would save you a lots.

It was pity that Lufthansa(Crooks) never gave me any information once i called them, They rather said call German embassy,about this and even air India never disclosed such info.

After many calls to Dnata customer service, visits to local travel agency and calls to Dubai immigration service along with confirmation with Dubai airport authorities i got this information above.

Hope this Post was really helpful for you.

Hope All this Information helps.

Hope you have an amazing trip:).

If any one needs any help always welcome.

Gorąco pozdrawiam
