Regular US Visa

The US visa process is detailed and the interview matters. We handle your DS-160, organize your documents and prepare you for the embassy interview — so you apply with confidence.

The B1/B2 visitor visa is the standard route for UAE residents travelling to the United States for tourism, family visits or business meetings. The application runs through the DS-160 form, an MRV fee payment, a biometrics appointment and an in-person interview at the US Embassy in Abu Dhabi or the Consulate in Dubai. We prepare every stage, review your documents against consular expectations and coach you for the interview itself.

Eligibility

US visas are open to UAE residents who can show a genuine purpose of travel, the funds to cover the trip and strong ties that will bring them back.
