Would a precharge prevent you from coming to Dubai?
136 Dollars for a visa - does a cash charge prevent undesirables?
While such concerns are understandable, the UAE had better make sure that it doesn’t lose its competitive edge with business travelers and tourists. Immigration can already be a slow process at Dubai’s airport. A new layer, including lines to make payments for visas, could really gum up the process. Ease of access has been a key ingredient in Dubai’s success, and Abu Dhabi, Dubai’s larger and wealthier neighbor, is also trying to transform itself into a world class destination through multibillion dollar investments including local outposts of the Louvre and Guggenheim museums. If visiting the UAE becomes too expensive and cumbersome, these attractions may wind up being unthronged.
