The 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension is a service designed for travelers who are already in the Emirates on an existing visa and need a longer extension of up to 60 additional days. This extension is generally intended for those who require significantly more time in the Emirates than their current visa allows, without needing to exit the country and reapply for a new visa.

What Is a 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension?
The 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension is a service that allows individuals already present in the Emirates on a valid visa to extend their permitted stay by 60 days, without needing to leave the country to obtain a new visa. Both the stay validity and the validity of the extension itself are set at 60 days.
- Visa validity (60 days): The window of time associated with this extension.
- Stay validity (60 days): The additional number of days the holder is permitted to remain in the Emirates once the extension is applied.
This service may be considered by travelers currently in the Emirates who need a longer additional period before departing — for example, those managing extended personal circumstances, longer family stays, or ongoing commitments that require significantly more time than a shorter extension would provide.
60 Days Emirates Visa Extension Requirements
Before applying for the 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension, applicants should review the following general points:
- Valid passport – A passport that meets the applicable validity requirements.
- Passport copy – A clear, legible scanned copy of the passport's biodata page.
- Current Emirates visa details – Information relating to the visa currently held, since this is an extension of an existing stay rather than a new entry visa.
- Recent photograph – A passport-style photograph meeting standard photo requirements.
- Accurate personal information – Full name, nationality, and other details that match the passport and current visa exactly.
Applicants should check the Emirates Visa Requirements and Emirates Visa Documents Required pages for further guidance before submitting an application. Submitting an application does not guarantee approval, and applicants are encouraged to ensure all information is accurate and complete before submission.
60 Days Emirates Visa Extension Fees
The 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension is available from $550. This price reflects the starting fee for this longer extension service. The final fee may vary depending on factors specific to the applicant's situation, so it's recommended to review the full cost breakdown during the application process before making payment.
This pricing applies specifically to the 60-day extension option. Travelers who only need a shorter additional stay, such as 30 days, should review the 30 Days Emirates Visa Extension instead, which may better match their needs and budget.
Emirates Visa Processing Time
Processing for the 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension typically takes 3–4 days. Processing generally begins once the applicant has submitted the required information and documents through the online application process. While this is the standard processing period, processing times can vary depending on individual circumstances, application volume, or other factors outside the applicant's control.
Travelers who need to extend their stay should submit their extension request with enough lead time before their current visa expires, to help avoid a gap between the current visa's expiry and the extension being processed. For more detail, see the Emirates Visa Processing Time page.
Stay Validity vs Visa Validity
Understanding the difference between these two terms is useful even when, as with this extension, both figures are the same:
- Stay Validity (60 Days): This is the number of additional days the holder is permitted to remain in the Emirates once the extension takes effect.
- Visa Validity (60 Days): This is the period associated with the extension itself.
Because both figures are set at 60 days for this extension, the service is structured to add a straightforward 60-day period to the applicant's permitted stay in the Emirates.

Who Should Choose This Emirates Visa Extension?
The 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension may be relevant for travelers who:
- Are currently in the Emirates on a valid visa and need a substantial amount of additional time before departing.
- Prefer to extend their existing stay significantly rather than exit the country and apply for a new visa.
- Have personal, family, or travel-related reasons requiring an extra 60 days in the Emirates.
- Have already assessed that a shorter 30-day extension would not be sufficient for their circumstances.
Travelers who only need a shorter additional period should consider the 30 Days Emirates Visa Extension instead. Those who are not currently in the Emirates, or who need a different type of visa altogether, should review other Emirates visa types rather than this extension service.
Important Things to Check Before Applying
Before submitting an application for the 60 Days Emirates Visa Extension, applicants should:
- Ensure passport and current visa details are entered accurately and match supporting documents.
- Confirm that all submitted information matches the current visa on file.
- Carefully review the stay validity and visa validity of the extension, both set at 60 days.
- Apply with sufficient time before the current visa expires to help avoid a gap in valid stay status.
- Double-check all information before final submission.
- Avoid finalizing further travel plans based on an assumed approval before the extension is confirmed.
