I've recently come to Dubai as my fiance is working over here (I'm not working), and I can't obtain residency until we're married. I'm from the UK so entered the country on a 30 day visa. I understand from reading other threads that I can cross the border to Oman and return to obtain another 30 day visa. I have also read that you can pay to extend this for 60 days.
I know that rules change all the time and have read conflicting information, some say you can only extend your tourist visa once and some suggest there's a limit to how many times you can do border runs. Also I've read that you may have to leave the country for 30 days.
Please can anyone clarify the current rules? I'm nervous about doing the border run and also concerned about unknowingly breaking any rules and/or being forced to leave the country. I plan on returning to the UK roughly every 3 months until we get married.
Any help or advice which can be offered will be gratefully recieved! Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
