What is the change? The Republic of Guinea has agreed to waive visas for UAE nationals under a memorandum of understanding signed March 15.
What does the change mean? Nationals of the UAE may apply for a visa upon arrival at the airport in Guinea without needing to obtain a visa before travel.
BAL Analysis: The UAE is actively pursuing visa-waiver agreements with its stated aim under its Vision 2021 plan to make the UAE passport among the top five in terms of visa-free access around the world. The UAE recently concluded similar visa-waiver agreements with China, Ireland, Paraguay, Switzerland, Ukraine and Uruguay.
