I am going to the UAE from Ukraine for the first time. I would like to clarify
I am going to the UAE from Ukraine for the first time. I would like to clarify the procedure for passing procedures at the Dubai airport (customs, visas, removal of the retina and what it is in general). How, what and in what queue to go through?

A picture of the iris is unique for each person, like fingerprints, it takes only a minute, but sometimes you have to stand in line. Do not worry, the main thing is that you already have a visa (before, you were very worried about opening a visa). Now it has become much easier with this (apparently the crisis has also affected them), we are already opening visas for young girls and with Israeli visas when passing control - zero questions. And at the airport, everything is simple - go for people (Russians go there as if to work), go through passport control, then they can send
(may skip) for scanning. Get your luggage and at the exit from the airport you will be met by the host (on your visa it will be written: SPONSOR. They will take you to the hotel, they will tell you everything, they will show you. Relax, do not worry, a very interesting country, good excursions. The guides are all Russian-speaking, the sellers are still the same . Have a nice rest!

Basically, tour operators give a scheme of Dubai airports, and the order is - eyes, passport control - suitcases - exit to the taxi stand (there meet)

I just arrived from Dubai 2 days ago. Now the eye scan is already passed right at passport control, after you go to get your luggage and go out, you will see your sponsor on the street.

I’ll add that it’s better to go through the scan in the same place as passport control, because part of our group (arrived in Dubai on February 13) was approached by some customs officer and sent for a separate retinal scan, so not only did they stand in line there, so Then I had to queue up again for passport control. True, there are “windows” without a scan, which you can approach like “without a queue”, but there is also a queue without a queue :), so immediately go straight to passport control, where everything is processed and scanned without further ado. have a good rest - the emirates are worth it to go there!

Comrades, I want to remind you that the weight of your luggage from the UAE should not exceed 20 kg (21 final limit) per person, because in our group my aunt paid $ 130 for overweight (there is something around $ 10 for an extra kilogram) . So if you don’t want to dump grannies at the end, watch your weight :)))

Surely you can, but it is not known whether they will ask you to remove the lens just before scanning :) we have not encountered this ) maybe someone else will answer)

It’s just that I don’t want to put on glasses, because in all the photos I’m wearing contact lenses. They won’t know yet))) Of course, you can take it off, but you must observe hygiene. Thanks for the answer!
