UAE Visa Support Announced For Indians Looking To Get Married In Abu Dhabi
Indians getting married in Abu Dhabi can get UAE visa support from a leading venue as it looks to establish the city as a top spot for destination weddings.
In a bid to establish Abu Dhabi as a premier wedding destination, the Abu Dhabi Convention and Exhibition Bureau announced an initiative to extend visa support to Indian nationals hosting destination weddings across the Emirate.
Unveiled during the ongoing Arabian Travel Market 2024 and taking place from May 2024 onwards, the new visa initiative contributes to Abu Dhabi’s Tourism Strategy 2030, which aims to boost visitor numbers to 39.3m by 2030.

The Destination Wedding segment is among the newest verticals to join ADCEB as part of an overarching objective to attract domestic and international visitors and increase the sector’s contribution to the GDP to AED90bn ($24.5bn) as per the 2030 strategy.
India is recognised as one of the largest markets for destination weddings globally, making it a key target market for Abu Dhabi.
By extending visa support to Indian weddings, in the form of absorbing costs, ADCEB’s Destination Wedding segment aims to position the city as a world-leading destination for weddings and celebrations of all kind.
It provides an avenue to amplify the Emirate’s unique cultural and entertainment offerings, cultural attractions and natural landscapes for international audiences.
Weddings are also a key revenue stream for the hospitality sector, driving venue and hotel room occupancy, and the service industry sectors such as wedding planning, photography, catering, personal services and more.
The Abu Dhabi Convention and Exhibition Bureau plays a crucial role in organising business events, destination weddings and celebrations in the Emirate.
It brings together experts and stakeholders to secure convention business and coordinate strategies for bid development to promote the emirate as a leading business tourism and celebrations hub.
