Who requires a Spain visa?
Your visa requirements for Spain rely on your nationality and residency in the UAE.
UAE Citizens - When travelling to Spain for short periods, UAE passport holders usually do not need a Schengen visa. They can enter Spain visa-free if only for tourism or short visits, subject to Schengen regulations.
UAE Residents - If you are a UAE resident who is not an EU citizen, an EEA citizen, a Swiss citizen, or from another exempt country, you have to apply for a Spain (Schengen) visa. This is true for the majority of expatriates in the UAE who hold residence visas issued by Dubai or another emirate.

If you belong to:
- EU citizens
- Citizens of the European Economic Area (EEA)
