The Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism has launched the \u201cAn Invitation from Dubai\u201d initiative, giving residents the opportunity to invite relatives and friends from outside the UAE and benefit from a diverse package of rewards and offers valued at more than AED 3,000.<\/p>\n
Both the host and the guest can take advantage of the offers, provided that visitors arrive in Dubai through air, land, or sea entry points during the campaign period, which continues until October 31, 2026.<\/p>\n
The initiative aims to support tourism activity in Dubai, encourage family and social visits, and highlight the role of residents as ambassadors for the city who can introduce their guests to the wide range of tourism and entertainment experiences available across the emirate.<\/p>\n
The department said through its official Instagram account that the \u201cAn Invitation from Dubai\u201d program was launched in recognition of residents and their role in promoting the city among relatives and friends.<\/p>\n
Participation in the initiative is based on a few simple digital steps completed by the host through the official Visit Dubai online platform.<\/p>\n
The host must be a UAE citizen or resident, at least 18 years old, and hold a valid Emirates ID.<\/p>\n
The registration process begins with entering the host\u2019s personal information, including the Emirates ID number, date of birth, and email address. The host must then register the details of the guests expected to visit.<\/p>\n
Visitor information includes the expected month of arrival, passport number, date of birth, and nationality of each guest.<\/p>\n
The initiative allows a host to register up to five people arriving in Dubai at the same time under a single application.<\/p>\n
Hosts can also receive a maximum of three reward packages throughout the campaign, provided that the visits take place during the specified period.<\/p>\n
Guests must arrive in Dubai between July 20 and October 31, 2026, to qualify for the available benefits.<\/p>\n
The verification process is automated, with the system receiving a notification when the first visitor on the registered list arrives through one of the country\u2019s entry points.<\/p>\n
Once the arrival is confirmed, the rewards and benefits package is sent to the registered email address within 72 hours of the guest\u2019s arrival.<\/p>\n
The \u201cAn Invitation from Dubai\u201d package includes a wide selection of offers across accommodation, entertainment, dining, and transportation.<\/p>\n
In the hotel sector, the benefits include discounts ranging from 35% to 45% on stays at several participating hotels, in addition to offers that provide one complimentary night at selected properties.<\/p>\n
For entertainment and tourist attractions, the package includes complimentary admission tickets to Aquaventure Waterpark and IMG Worlds of Adventure.<\/p>\n
The offers also include a 50% discount on tickets to the waterpark at Grand Hyatt Dubai, giving visitors and families the chance to enjoy a variety of entertainment experiences at a lower cost.<\/p>\n
Restaurant offers include complimentary meals or main courses when another dish is purchased at a number of participating restaurants, as well as discount vouchers worth AED 100 at other dining venues.<\/p>\n
In transportation, the initiative provides a 20% discount on rides with participating passenger transportation companies, along with a complimentary three-month Careem Plus membership.<\/p>\n
These benefits give hosts and their guests a more convenient and complete experience throughout the visit, with offers covering accommodation, entertainment, dining, and transportation across Dubai.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
