As we reported on our website- on Monday, June 27, 2011 The Government of India significantly increased duration of
tourist and business visas for Russian citizens, and yesterday, on June 28, 2011, the Government of the UAE
(United Arab Emirates)
announced, that
foreigners, who bought property in the UAE can easily get a UAE visas for three years.
It should be noted, that although in Hainan visa-free entry for citizens of the Russian Federation, South Korea and
Germany is for a period of 21 days and for
23 nationals of other countries is for 15 days, however, reviews of foreign tourists, this is a very short period,
it is necessary
visa-free entry to Hainan at least three months, as well as the granting of visas to foreigners, who buy real estate on
Hainan Island -at least a year. As you know, even if a foreigner buys property in millions of U.S. dollars on Hainan Island-
this
will not help him get a visa in China (Hainan), he will get Chinese visa for a maximum of three months, and usually-
one-month visa.
So now it is expected, that the UAE would be taken away from Hainan Island a potential investors,
wanting to buy real estate in the tropics, on the coast. It is unclear- why there is such a tough visa regime on
Hainan Island, which deters many foreign tourists from visiting the resorts of Hainan Island.
Now, from the June 27, 2011 foreign tourists will be prefer to go relax and buy real estate in
resorts of India and the UAE, than
in the resorts of Hainan Island.
