NEWLY launched Ruimsigbased
business, Dubai Visas
Online, is paying agents
commission for UAE visa
referrals.
Brian van Tonder, md of
Dubai Visas Online, who
also owns online companies
Ausie Visas and UK Visas
and tour operator, Plum
Accommodation, explains
that travel agents were
often reticent to accept the
responsibility of processing
clients’ visas themselves.
He says Dubai Visas Online
offers agents the opportunity
to earn a referral commission
for sending clients to the
online visa company while
also allowing them to
separate themselves from
the application process and
correspondence.
Dubai Visas Online pays a
R150 referral commission to
agents for every completed
visa application that it
receives.
Agents must register on
the website and then send
a referral link to their clients
who are planning a trip to
the UAE. The client clicks
on the link, completes the
online form and uploads a
photo of themselves and their
passport copy to the website.
Once the application has
been successfully completed,
agents receive their referral
commission.
Brian says all applications
are sponsored by the
company’s partner in the
UAE and that the visas are
processed by the UAE Ministry
of Interior. 14-day single-entry
visa applications are currently
R2 150 per application,
which includes both the visa
application and service fee.
