If you hold a passport from a Visa Waiver Program country you may not need a visa at all. We prepare and submit your ESTA for AED 999 + VAT, government fee included.
Eligibility follows your passport, not your residence. The UAE is not in the Visa Waiver Program, but many UAE residents hold a passport that is. If yours is on this list, ESTA is almost always the faster and cheaper route.

Yes. ESTA is applied for online on the official CBP website, so where you live does not matter. What matters is your passport: it must be from a Visa Waiver Program country and be an e-passport with a chip, and your trip must be 90 days or less.
No. The UAE is not in the Visa Waiver Program, so UAE passport holders need a B1/B2 visa for the United States. UAE residents with a passport from a Visa Waiver Program country can use ESTA.
No. ESTA is an electronic travel authorisation under the Visa Waiver Program. It lets eligible passport holders travel to the United States for tourism or business for up to 90 days without a visa. If you are not eligible for the Visa Waiver Program you need a B1/B2 visa instead.
Eligibility follows your passport, not where you live. You need a passport from one of the 42 Visa Waiver Program countries, it must be an e-passport with an electronic chip, and your trip must be 90 days or less for tourism or business. Many UAE residents hold a qualifying passport even though the UAE itself is not in the programme.
Travel to North Korea, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria or Yemen on or after 1 March 2011, travel to Cuba on or after 12 January 2021, or dual nationality with Cuba, North Korea, Iran, Iraq, Sudan or Syria. In those cases you apply for a B1/B2 visa instead, and we can handle that for you.
AED 999 + VAT per traveller, and that includes the US government ESTA fee of about USD 40, which we pay on your behalf. There is nothing further to pay to the US government.
An approved ESTA is generally valid for two years, or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. Within that period you can make multiple trips of up to 90 days each.
US Customs and Border Protection states that most applicants receive a response within 72 hours. We track your application and send you the result as soon as it arrives. Apply well before you book, because a decision is never guaranteed.
No. An approved ESTA allows you to board and travel to a US port of entry. The decision to admit you is made by a CBP officer on arrival. No agency can promise entry.
A refused ESTA does not stop you travelling, it means you need to apply for a B1/B2 visa instead. We will tell you honestly if that is the likely route and can move you onto one of our appointment packages.
