Do I need to pay any charges after getting the visa and admission, or are there any hidden fees in UAE?

Yes, after receiving your UAE visa and admission, you will still need to pay some additional charges beyond tuition and initial visa fees. These are standard, not hidden, but are often paid separately:

- Medical Fitness Test: AED 300 - 500, required after arrival.
- Emirates ID Application: AED 370 - 570, mandatory for residency.
- Health Insurance: AED 500 - 3,000/year, usually required.
- Visa Renewal Fees: Around AED 2,000+ per year, plus possible medical and Emirates ID renewals.
- University Service/Processing Fees: Some universities charge annual or semester-based administrative fees.
- Document Attestation/Translation: Separate costs if needed.
- Accommodation and Living Expenses: Not included in visa/admission fees, but essential to budget for.

These costs are typical and should be expected. Your university will provide a detailed fee breakdown. If you need clarification on charges specific to your program, your Leap counsellor can assist.
