Are you a Sri Lankan national in Dubai with a visit visa about to expire? An airport to airport visa change, also called an A2A visa change, is one of the fastest legal ways to get a fresh UAE entry without flying all the way back to Sri Lanka. At White Sky Travel we handle the whole process for you, from your documents to your flydubai flight and your new visa.
In short: the A2A visa change for Sri Lankans gives you a 60 day single entry UAE visa for AED 2,350, with no deposit. The price is the same whether you are changing from a visit visa or applying after a residence visa cancellation. Message us on WhatsApp at +971 4 220 2133 or +971 52 292 1011, open daily from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.
What Is an A2A Visa Change for Sri Lankan Nationals?
An airport to airport visa change is a short flight out of the UAE and straight back. You fly to a nearby Gulf airport on flydubai, and on your return to Dubai a fresh UAE visa is activated. It is a fully legal route under UAE immigration rules, and most travellers are back in Dubai within 24 to 48 hours. You do not need to return to Sri Lanka.
Who Can Apply for the Airport Visa Change?
This service suits Sri Lankan nationals in the UAE who need a new entry, including:
- Sri Lankan nationals on a UAE visit or tourist visa that is close to expiry
- UAE residents whose residence visa has been cancelled and who need a fresh visit entry
- Travellers waiting on an employment visa who need to remain in the UAE legally
- Anyone who prefers not to travel back to Sri Lanka for a new entry
Not sure which option fits your situation? Send us your passport and current visa details on WhatsApp and we will confirm the best route for you.
Documents Required for the A2A Visa Change
To start your application, please have these ready:
- A valid Sri Lankan passport with at least 6 months validity remaining
- A clear scan or photo of your passport
- A recent passport size photo with a plain background
- A copy of your current UAE visa
- A copy of your latest UAE entry stamp
All copies should be clear and readable, and photos should be recent. Our team checks everything before submission so there are no avoidable delays in your approval.
Your 60 Day Single Entry Visa: Price and Validity
The A2A visa change gives Sri Lankan nationals a 60 day single entry UAE visa for AED 2,350, with no separate deposit to pay. That single price applies whether you are changing from an existing visit visa or applying after a residence visa cancellation, so there is nothing to work out in advance.
Once inside the UAE on the 60 day visa, you can extend your stay twice, 30 days each time, without leaving the country, subject to immigration approval. After the maximum extensions, a further airport to airport change or a bus visa change is the way to reset your stay. We advise you on the right timing based on your entry history.
Step by Step: How the Visa Change Works
We manage the application for you from start to finish:
- Send your documents. Share your passport, photo, and visa copy with us on WhatsApp. Our team reviews them and confirms your eligibility.
- We book your flydubai flight. We arrange a suitable outbound and return flight to a nearby Gulf airport at a time that works for you.
- You take the short flight. The flydubai flight to the nearby airport is short, usually under two hours.
- We submit your new visa. While you are travelling, we file your new UAE visa application through the official immigration channels.
- You return to Dubai. Once approved, you board your return flydubai flight, and your new UAE entry is active when you land. We send your visa confirmation by WhatsApp or email before you board.
flydubai Flights for Your A2A Visa Change
We book your trip on flydubai, which runs frequent, affordable flights from Dubai to nearby Gulf cities and back. flydubai schedules make it easy to complete the change quickly, and we choose the flight timing that fits your dates. We handle the full booking so you only need to be at the airport at the right time.
Payment Options: Tabby, Tamara and UAE Credit Card
You can spread the cost of your visa change:
- Tabby over terms up to 12 months
- Tamara on extendable terms
- UAE credit card in monthly instalments up to 12 months, depending on your bank
These monthly plans are available to UAE residents booking for family or friends. Applicants outside the UAE receive a secure online payment link to complete the booking. You can see all options on our flexible payment options page.
Fast Processing for Urgent Cases
If your visa is very close to expiry, tell us straight away. We prioritise urgent cases and file your new visa application as quickly as possible so you avoid overstay. It is best to start at least five to seven days before your current visa expires. Message us on WhatsApp and we will tell you the fastest workable option for your travel date.
Other Visa Change Options
The airport to airport route is not the only way to reset your stay. You can also use a bus visa change to Oman and return with a new visa, or an in country extension that adds time without leaving the UAE. We will talk through which one is faster and better value for your case.
Overstay Fines: Why Timing Matters
If your visa expires before you act, daily overstay fines apply and must be settled before you can renew or travel. A long overstay can also lead to a travel ban. Starting your visa change early keeps you compliant and avoids extra cost.
Passport Validity: The 6 Month Rule
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your travel date. If it has less than 6 months remaining, you will need to renew it before we can process the visa change. We flag this early so it never holds up your application.
