Looking to move to abu dhabi or dubai.. temporary or permanent who knows

1. Can I just do a visa run every 30 days? How long can you get away with that?
2. I have a business back home so been advised to set up in a free zone for about £5k and have a freelance visa

Did you read the responses to your last thread? You never came back to it to respond so I'm not sure you saw them, but certainly the 'visa run' subject was covered in the answers you were given.

Was zero replies after about 3 days so gave up. Just saw about 20 pointless replies on the thread just now lol. I'm running the assumption that 30 day visa runs.. for flexibility etc and ease, and could play it by ear.. maybe employment or maybe freelance permit.. but I did wonder how sustainable a 30 day visa run would be

Maybe next time 'subscribe' to a thread so that you get notifications when people respond to it? Thread drift tends to happen when an OP doesn't come back to it to respond or ask follow up questions.

But posts no's 3 & 5 answer your question about visa runs in it, it seems that essentially it's not feasible as you have to be outside the country as long as you're in.

Hopefully others will be along shortly to help out with info on the business related question.

Good luck.

Thanks. Yes 90 days require 90 days out as well and just depends how long can renew a 30 day. I've seen quite a few websites advertising the visa runs. But 90 days is more than enough time to secure a visa
