Optimisticgondy: I commend everyone's contributions to this thread. May God continue to bless you all. Amen.
I've gone through the whole thread and I seem not to understand something I would want to ask question about here.
I understand Airlines help process visa and can help book hotel accommodation. But since hotel fees are too expensive and one cannot get shared accommodation directly from naija here, how many days hotel accommodation should one book?

Also, how is one able to get shared accommodation on arrival in Dubai?

Answers to these questions will be appreciated. Thanks

ogakpatakpata: U can make 5 or 7days hotel reservation online urself. when u arrive go to deira area in dubai we hv cheap hotels and accomodation within that vicinity, on checking into the hotel, u will see some nigerians within deira area, mingle with them cautiously and ask for shared accomodation and am sure u will meet some honest and sincere guys to assist u.Hope l hv answered ur questions?

tosin@Awo:

goodtalk: ¤ ogagbatagbata¤ please why do employers in dubai always collect t'he passport of there workers• This makes it impossible for them to move without informing t'he employers for example u may like to vist a friend in saudi during your day off but it becomes impossible because ur passport is confiscate
d• Employers can also deal with it workers by refusing to realise there passpor if they want to change there jobs and t'he employers dont want to realise you expecially if u are very good on your job• Tell me is there added advantage if someone speack any other foreign language like russian and friench will it help to get a job on time when i arrive at dubai

goodtalk: ¤ogakpatakpata¤ i really appreciate ur candid` swift and passionate answers to questions it really helps people to take quality decisions God bless u• I have over read dis tread from begining till ending infact no dull moment• ;d' from my personal experience living abroad is not for boys at heart but for t'he men at heart so all u guys that wants to take d' decision just preaper ur heart and take d'. Bull by d' horn• Pls clarify how easy is it for nigerians to get visa to other eu and d' americas after living in dubai for a while•

ogakpatakpata: 1. from my thorough investigation/inquiry in Dubai, l was told that it wasn't so b4, that what really happened is that citizens of bangladesh,pakistan, nepales and some small south east Asian countries where allowed to be brought in by different companies by the UAE govt to work in dubai, most of them are illiterate and unskilled migrants, some of them came tru dubious agents in their various countries, b4 arrival they agreed on salary which most of this guys didnt know was not a big income, but on arrival they discovered that d salary is between $100 or $200 per mth, meanwhile they hv done all the medicals, sign the offer letters and where issued residence visa.


2. when most of this unskilled workers began to mingle with other migrants and heard what others earn per mth, majority decided to quit there jobs and become illegal immigrants in dubai, when the govt of UAE heard of this sharp practices they placed an embargo on visa issuance to citizens of bangladesh up till today.

3. The govt decided to give amnesty to anyone who falls into that category and allowed them to leave dubai voluntarily without fine or sanction

4. It is still illegal for companies to keep someone's passport, but most companies still do it.

5. whenever u want to leave dubai at any time, THE LAW STATES THAT YOUR PASSPORT MUST BE RELEASED TO U BY UR EMPLOYER UNCONDITIONALLY OR U CAN GO REPORT TO IMMIGRATION DIRECTLY AND IMMIGRATION & POLICE WILL MANDATE UR PASSPORT TO BE GIVEN TO U.

6. About 3weeks ago, a Nigerian security officer wanted to leave his job, but his employers refused to give him his passport, he went to immigrattion and the police to report, Dubai police and immigration summon the company to labour court, and the judge asked the company are u the one that brought this nigerian from his country, the company said NO, the judge now directed the company to release the passport immediately to the nigerian guy, the passport was given to this guy by the company.

7. The Uae law allows u to change ur job anytime wether from labour or freezone as soon as u get a bigger offer, l hv personally witnessed and seen alot of people switching jobs without any issue, but the only clause is that if u are switching from labour zone, u need a new job offer of 5000dhs waec, 7000dhs Diploma, and 12,500dhs as a degree holder, this is the law and anyone can prove me wrong here. The writer personally called UAE ministry of labour and was given all this info, it is also in the current UAE LABOUR LAW which has been amended to justify this switch of jobs. but with a freezone visa , u can switch anytime u get a better offer.

8. But u must understand that wether labour or freezone, both zones have low salaries, l hv seen graduates working in freezones earning 1500dhs per mth + accomodation+ transport. l hv also seen graduates earning 2000dhs per mth in labourzones+ transport+ accomodation. so whichever zone u are is not a big deal.

9. speaking another language is a plus for u but not a guarantee that u will earn 1million dhs as a fresher.

10. finally, to succeed in Dubai, this is my submission arrive dubai+ submit ur CV'S+ mingle with sincere nigerians and put ur ears on ground for walk in interviews+ Ask God for open doors and favours for u+ gather the 1yr or 2yrs experience,be patient and avoid criminality. Then u will go places in dubai or anywhere in the middle east. u can go on vacation after 1yr if u desire, NO COMPANY CAN STOP U FROM VACATION AFTER 1YR.
