Border/Visa Run
 
Hi Everyone

Just dawned on me that i will need to renew my visa next week! I am going to apply for the 30 day extension unless there is someone else doing a border run and wants to share a taxi? If your driving i can also pay towards fuel and some lunch?

If I chose to do a border run what are my other options rather than driving. is there a bus that can take me?

thank
Vik

Hi Vik,

If you can get yourself to Dubai Marina there is a bus service from there.

Also, on a British passport even though the stamp says thirty days you actually get forty days as British passport holders are given a ten day grace period.
