There’s no welcome to Dubai like getting one from the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

After borders in Dubai officially reopened to tourists earlier this week, the famous landmark lit up to send a message to tourists and international visitors.

“Welcome to Dubai,” the message said on the landmark building, and was also showcased in Arabic.

This isn’t the only measure being taken to welcome back tourists. Upon arrival in Dubai visitors will be receiving a sticker on their passports was unveiled reading, “A warm welcome to your second home.”

Speaking on borders reopening to visitors, Major General Mohammad Ahmad Al Marri, Director General of GDRFA-Dubai, said tourists were “always welcome”.

“We welcome all tourists and visitors to the country through Dubai Airports,” he said. “They are always welcome in their second country and we are ready to facilitate their procedures based on the highest levels of safety.”

Dubai Tourism has also shared a heartfelt video, showcasing landmarks around the city and all of the extraordinary activities you can do telling visitors Dubai is “ready when you are”.

“We made you a promise that we would see you soon,” their Twitter post said. “That time has come. Dubai is ready for you to visit once again. Ready when you are…”

In order to ensure the health and safety of all travellers, UAE citizens and UAE residents when entering Dubai, there are many precautionary measures in place.

Similarly, before boarding your flight to Dubai ensure you have all the necessary documents needed for entering the country including a health declaration form and a negative COVID-19 test result prior to leaving your home country.

You can also opt for a PCR test once landing in Dubai, but be prepared to quarantine until you receive a negative test for COVID-19.
