A UAE ordinary passport holder is not visa-free for Niger, but UAE MoFA currently lists normal UAE passports as eligible for visa on arrival. Niger's DST/IOM tourist visa can also be applied for online or via an embassy. Niamey Airport separately says some visa-on-arrival cases require prior National Police confirmation, so confirm with the airline/DST before relying on walk-up arrival processing. United Arab Emirates ordinary passport holders are not visa-free for Niger, but the primary current UAE-government guidance is visa on arrival: UAE MoFA lists Diplomatic passports as visa-free and Normal passports as Visa On Arrival for Niger, while warning UAE nationals against travel to Niger at present. Niger's DST/IOM eVisa eligibility portal also lists United Arab Emirates as eligible for a Tourist Visa, giving travelers an online/advance route. Niamey Airport's visa information page separately says holders of pre-approved confirmation from the National Police may obtain a visa on arrival at Niamey and that the passport may be held for one working day for registration, so travelers should confirm current airline and DST handling before relying on a walk-up arrival process. Older higher-fee and longer-stay-band eVisa figures are not supported by the current official portal pages checked; the public Niger visa-type page states a tourist visa processing fee of US$50. Passport wording should be kept to at least six months validity unless a stricter airline or mission rule is supplied. Yellow fever vaccination proof is required for all arriving travelers aged 9 months or older. Niger remains a high-risk destination with strong official travel warnings, so verify the issuing channel shortly before travel.
