Good Morning

I hope you can help me.

My husband moved over to Abu Dhabi at the end of last year and I am in talks with my company to see if I can transfer as well.

My office however would be in Dubai and I was wondering if it was possible to live in Abu Dhabi but work in Dubai.

I have heard many things but my employer needs clarification before we start the process.

I have looked at my husband’s visa and it says United Arab Emirates Residence would this be the same for all visa’s within the UAE.

Any help on this matter would be great.

Yes, it is possible for you to live in Abu Dhabi and work in Dubai if you don't mind the long drive. Travelling by car from Abu Dhabi to Dubai takes an hour or so. As for the visa, UAE visa allows you to stay in all 7 emirates of the country. Hope this helps.
