A work visa, or employment visa, in the UAE is issued to foreign nationals employed by companies within the country, allowing them to legally work and reside in the UAE for the term of their contract. Employers sponsor this visa, requiring documents such as a job offer, employment contract, and medical fitness certificate. Work visas grant legal employment rights, access to the UAE’s labor market, and benefits while ensuring compliance with local labor regulations.
