Dubai Culture opens registrations for cultural visas

Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) announced that Creative entrepreneurs, talents and craftsmen can now apply for the UAE’s long-term cultural visa.

This step is one of the resulting outputs of the Al Quoz Creative Zone committee’s development project chaired by Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairperson of Dubai Culture, who is overseeing the implementation of the project.

“This enhances the value of the zone as a regional and global centre for embracing designers and creatives seeking to work and live in Dubai. Through Al Quoz Creative Zone, the authority seeks to provide an incubating environment that inspires and encourages all local and international talents to join Dubai's creative horizon,” a statement issued by Dubai Culture said.

Dubai Culture urged all target groups in Al Quoz to submit their applications to obtain the cultural visa by sending the required documents to [email protected], including their academic qualifications, community contributions, and job positions, in addition to a copy of their passports, a copy of their Emirates ID, their cultural biographies, contact numbers, addresses and places of residence and work.
