UAE: Can residents travel abroad if Emirates ID renewal is still under process?
Emirates:
Question: I have completed my residence visa renewal but Emirates ID
renewal is under process. Will I be able to travel abroad?
Answer: Pursuant to your query, as a UAE resident you may travel
outside the UAE if you have a valid UAE residency visa.
While you travel outside the UAE, you may also carry with you a copy of your UAE
residency ID card application form which may be shown to the immigration if they
ask for your resident ID card. It will be evident from this UAE residency ID
card application that you have applied for it.
Furthermore, you may also show them the online status of your UAE resident card
application as the application tracking facility is provided by the UAE
government.
