UAE announces emergency support for UAE citizens and Golden Visa holders abroad

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MoFAIC) authority has highlighted the availability of expanded emergency and crisis response services for UAE citizens and Golden Visa holders abroad. This is following recent evacuation efforts by MoFAIC and the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority that assisted stranded UAE citizens and residents in returning to the UAE. These services, part of the UAE's enhanced consular support framework, provide UAE citizens and Golden Visa holders with additional protection and assistance during emergencies outside the country.
