I am currently 17 but I am turning 18 in a couple of months and would like to move to Dubai. However, I do have some concerns about my possible move.
First of all, what do I need to obtain in order to stay, live, and work in Dubai? I am planning on staying for approximately 1 year, so do I need to obtain a visa and if yes what kind? Furthermore, I would also like to work as I need to earn an income to pay for housing and living expenses. Where would be the best place to look for jobs? Lastly, I also need to find somewhere to live. So where would the best place be for me to look for somewhere to live? I would prefer to pay monthly, rather than quarterly or yearly as it would easier to merely pay monthly.
Is there anything else that I am forgetting or anything else that I need to consider?
Our Dubai City Guide should be able to answer most of you questions on accommodation and cost of living.
You should try to secure a job before moving to Dubai and I think the internet is the best place to begin. Your employer will play an important role in sposoring you and helping you apply for the relavent visa.
Good luck.
