The UAE is offering five-year visas for tourists.
Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammad announced the news on Twitter on Monday.
Previously, tourist visas were only issued for between 30 and 90 days.
The move is part of the UAE government’s aim to attract more tourists. Countries all over the Middle East are attempting to lure more tourists by making their visa processes easier.
