Do UAE passport holders need a visa to visit HT?
UAE ordinary passport holders do NOT need a visa for tourist trips to Haiti. They may enter visa-free for up to 90 days (3 months) and simply pay a US$10 tourist fee on arrival at the airport. The passport must be valid for at least 6 months. Haiti maintains a liberal visa policy and allows nationals of most countries — including United Arab Emirates ordinary passport holders — to enter without a visa for short visits of up to 90 days (3 months). The UAE does not appear on Haiti's restricted-nationality list (which is limited to a small group such as the Dominican Republic, Panama, Colombia, Cuba, Syria, Libya, Iran, Vietnam and Yemen, who must obtain a visa in advance). Every foreign visitor pays a small tourist/airport fee of US$10 on arrival, and passports must be valid for at least six months from the date of entry. Haiti is in the Caribbean and is not part of the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Travelers should note that Haiti's overall security situation has been volatile, and many foreign ministries advise against travel; however, the visa requirement itself remains visa-free for Emirati travelers. Carry proof of onward/return travel and accommodation, as immigration officers may ask to see these.
