Dubai (UAE) Tourist Visa for Jamaicans
Quick answer
Jamaican passport holders need a UAE visa before flying to Dubai — there is no visa on arrival. Apply online for a 30 or 60 day tourist visa (single or multiple entry) with a passport scan and a photo. Normal processing is usually 2–3 working days. EEC Travels coordinates through official UAE sponsors; the UAE authorities issue the visa.
