The denizens of Dubai are really nice and sweet. The buildings and architecture here are beautiful. If you want to move to Dubai, then know the climate is really hot and it rarely rains here. Also, you don’t have to worry about the language barrier because residents of Dubai are really diverse; they come from many religions and nationalities.

Be careful not to break the rules for they will be entitled to heavy penalties. Respect the different communities that reside in the city. Ensure that you dress modestly, immodest dressing is seen as disrespectful. Be open to learning the local language of the residing country. Respect the environment of your residence and everywhere else.

Dubai is one of safest cities in the world. Arabic is national language of the UAE. Officially, the working week starts on Sunday and ends by Thursday, as the government’s official holiday (weekend) is Friday and Saturday. But many private companies may choose different days.

The cost of living in Dubai is notably high and jobs are hard to come by. A decent amount of savings would be required for sustenance. Most people are fluent in English and so the language barrier is not a huge obstacle. The public transportation is beyond satisfactory, however, the taxi fare can be quite pricey. With extravagant malls littered all across the city, and the tallest building in the world in the middle of it all, Dubai is the epitome of a lavish lifestyle.

Dubai is an amazing city. It combines traditional (Arabic culture) with modern. It has a vibrant expat community and you will never run out of things to do here. Earning potential is higher than other places as Dubai is tax-free, although UAE did introduce 5% VAT in 2019.
