Dubai: As part of the “Year of Community” initiatives, the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs – Dubai (GDRFA Dubai) has announced a strategic partnership with Global Village, the region’s premier multicultural destination for family entertainment, dining, shopping, and attractions.

This collaboration is aimed at enriching the visitor experience and promoting happiness, reinforcing Dubai’s position as a leading global tourism hub.

Under this initiative, Global Village provided complimentary entry tickets, which GDRFA Dubai distributed to travellers arriving through Dubai International Airport and the Hatta Border Crossing.
