Cleartrip initiates online UAE visa application service with money back guarantee

Dubai, UAE, January 21, 2019: Aiming to reinforce its commitment to providing consumers with seamless travel experiences, Cleartrip, the leading mobile and online travel company in the Middle East, has announced the launch of a new online visa application service on its website for the UAE, www.cleartrip.ae.

As part of the newly launched service,, travellers can apply for tourist visas to the UAE together with a money back guarantee in the event of the rejection of an application, a first-of-its-kind offer in the country.

To encourage travellers to take advantage of the new service, Cleartrip will offer discounts on air tickets with every visa application. Travellers who apply for 30-day or 90-day visas will receive a discount on their airfare of up to 100 percent of their visa costs.

With the new service, Cleartrip customers can look forward to receiving their visas at the push of a button after submitting their visa application on www.cleartrip.ae. Once processed, the visa will be delivered to the applicant via email, eliminating the need for travellers to visit a physical visa-processing centre.

Commenting on the launch, Sameer Bagul, Executive Vice President & Managing Director, Cleartrip Middle East, said: Making the travel experience even more convenient for our customers continues to be a top priority for Cleartrip. With our new online visa application service that displaces the tedious, manual process of applying for a visa, we have elevated our booking platform to offer a one-stop-shop that caters to every need of our customers and provide them with the convenience of a hassle-free travel booking experience. By launching this feature for travellers from India and the Philippines, the leading source markets for the UAEs travel and tourism sector, we are seeking to encourage more and more users to take advantage of the benefits online visa application provides. The introduction of this service also complements the UAEs ongoing efforts and initiatives to ease the process and procedures of inbound travel.

In 2018, around 250,000 travel bookings on www.cleartrip.ae originated from India, which has remained the top source market for inbound travel to the UAE. The Philippines, whose citizens account for 8 percent of the Gulf states total population, is also among the top 10 source markets for inbound international visitation to the country.
