Visa-free countries for UAE residents
Why other lists give different numbers
We count 31 visa-free countries and, separately, 22 that give a visa on arrival, each confirmed by the destination's own government. A visa on arrival is still a visa, so we never add it to the visa-free count. Lists with a higher number may also count visas on arrival and online travel authorisations as visa-free, include territories that are not countries, or keep rules that have since changed.

Every row links that source, with the date we checked it. Rules change, so confirm on the official site before you book.
