Fighting crime: UAE halts visas to Pakistanis; stops short of banning passport
UAE has significantly curtailed visa issuance for Pakistanis, narrowly avoiding a complete passport ban. This move, reportedly due to concerns over criminal activities by visitors, has caused considerable difficulty for Pakistani nationals seeking entry. Meanwhile, UAE officials highlight visa facilitation reforms, processing hundreds of visas daily at a new center.
