Dubai residents planning international trips can now have a much smoother experience when it comes to securing visas. The city is officially home to the world’s largest 'Visa Application Centre', launched by VFS Global in Wafi City, significantly easing the application process for outbound travel.
The new centre spans nearly 150,000 square feet and can process up to 10,000 applications per day, more than any other facility globally. It serves visa requirements for 37 countries and is staffed by over 400 professionals representing 25 nationalities, reinforcing Dubai’s position as a hub of global connectivity and customer service innovation.
For UAE residents, especially families and frequent travellers, the upgraded facility offers both efficiency and comfort. From tech-enabled self-service kiosks to dedicated fast-track lanes for seniors and people of determination, the design prioritises ease of use and accessibility. Amenities such as prayer rooms, children’s play zones, and intuitive navigation systems create a hassle-free, airport-style environment.
Whether you're renewing a visa or applying for the first time, this new facility makes the process quicker, more transparent, and less stressful. The centre will remain open from Mondays through Fridays from 9am to 5pm.
