Overstaying your visa in the UAE is not only a legal offense but will 100% invite hefty fines in your name. The UAE has strict immigration rules which means one has to be very careful and legally aware. The severity of the fine will be dependent on your visa type, how long you have overstayed, and other supporting factors in your case.
In most cases, there is a grace period after your visa expires during which you wont be fined. But if you exceed this grace period, daily fines will apply, and these can add up pretty quickly! The fine is calculated based on the number of additional days after the grace period.
To pay your overstay fine, you can usually visit Amer centers, immigration offices, typing centers, or even pay online via the official website of the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) of the emirate where you are staying, like Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
Make sure to check the exact amount of your overstay fine by providing your passport and visa details on the official GDRFA website. If the days are less you might have a chance to settle your overstay without facing hefty fines or pay a reduced fine.
You need to know that if you have overstayed, you might not be allowed to leave the UAE until you have cleared your fines and addressed your visa issues. Immigration authorities at the airport usually check for any outstanding dues. Its in your best interest to resolve these matters before attempting to leave the country.
