The UAE authorities have announced an initiative to introduce an amnesty for illegal residents living in the country.
“Protect Yourself by Modifying Your Status” will allow any illegal resident living in the country to change their visa status or leave the country, without fear of incarceration, deportation, fines, or any legal consequences, regardless of the length of time they have been living in the country illegally.
The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship is expected to launch the initiative in the next couple of weeks.
