Mission Work Permits no longer renewable in Dubai

It is no longer possible to renew a Mission Work Permit in Dubai for an additional 90 days. Mission Work permits in the UAE are used by a number of organizations for short term assignments of up to 90 days. Dubai had allowed these to be renewed for a further 90 days but has ceased this practice and brought itself in line with its fellow Emirate Abu Dhabi, which discontinued such extensions a few years ago. A Tax Alert prepared by EY's People Advisory Services group, and attached below, provides additional details.
