Yes, you will most likely need to prepare for and take the IELTS exam for an LLM (master's) course in Dubai. Most universities require an IELTS Academic score - usually around 6.0 to 6.5 overall - to show English proficiency for postgraduate programs.
Some universities may waive IELTS if you provide a Medium of Instruction (MOI) certificate showing your previous education was in English, but this is not guaranteed and depends on the institution.
Since you haven't taken IELTS yet, preparing for it is recommended.
