The master of u-turns surprises again.

Now it's UAE wide. Not just AD.

I guess we can expect rents to rocket again.

Speaking from a position of ignorance - as I don't have one yet - do the new ID cards have your home address anywhere (either in full or encoded)?

No more wives working on their own visas?

I don't have a place to live in the UAE right now. My visa expires next year (cheaper to get a hotel for when I'm back). Guess that'll be a "commit or leave" moment for me.

I guess we take our normal course of action - ignore all the daft rulings until we have to by which time some sense may have prevailed.

No, that would be too logical. The ID card shows your full name, nationality, sex, card number, ID number (they are different for some reason),date of birth and card expiry date...plus signature.
