Surat’s connection to the UAE runs deeper than most Indian cities: the diamond trade via Dubai, the Surti Jain community spread across the Gulf, and the regular family visits between Surat and Sharjah. We’re a UAE-licensed agency founded by a Jain family and physically based in Sharjah — which means a Surat applicant gets a visa filed by people who actually understand both ends of the trip. INR pricing, Gujarati on WhatsApp, document review before you pay.
Surat ↔ Dubai — what we see most
We process visas for three main types of trip out of Surat:
- Diamond trade trips — multiple short stays per year, often combining DXB with Antwerp or Tel Aviv. The 5-year multi-entry visa is built for this profile.
- Family visits to Sharjah / Dubai — Surti Jain families with relatives across the UAE. Usually a 60-day multi-entry, sometimes followed by a 1-year residence visa if the visit becomes permanent.
- Holiday and pilgrimage trips — combining Dubai with Abu Dhabi BAPS Mandir. We pre-register the BAPS Mandir visit and add Jain meals on every excursion.
Whatever the trip type, the visa logic is the same. What changes is the documentation we ask for to make the application strongest.

Surat to UAE — flight options
Direct connectivity from Surat (STV) to the UAE is limited; most travellers connect via Mumbai (BOM) or Ahmedabad (AMD), or fly direct on the few Air India / IndiGo / SpiceJet rotations.
- STV ↔ SHJ direct — Air Arabia operates seasonally / select days. ~3 hours. Cheapest if dates align.
- STV ↔ BOM → DXB — the most common routing. 1-stop on Air India, IndiGo, Vistara.
- STV ↔ AMD → DXB / SHJ — useful if you have a meeting / family in Ahmedabad before flying out.
Our visa works for entry into all three UAE airports (DXB, AUH, SHJ). Tell us which one you’re landing at and we’ll select the right channel.
