In general, all visitors require authorization for entrying the country, except those passengers in connecting flights and citizens from the GCC countries.

The kind of visa that you require for entry into the UAE depends on several different factors such as your nationality, the purpose of your visit and its duration. Regulations do change from time to time. Please check with your airline and regional UAE embassy or consulate.
