How long it lasts
Granted for 60, 90 or 120 days, for a single entry. The source states the three durations but not whether the period runs from issue or from arrival, so DAYOZA does not compute a departure date for it.
Who it is for
No host or sponsor in the UAE is required. The applicant must fall within the first, second or third MOHRE skill level, or have graduated within the last two years from one of the best 500 universities in the world; must hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent; and must meet the prescribed financial guarantee.

If you overstay
50 AED per day
This is the published daily rate applied from the first day past your permitted departure. No grace period is applied, because none could be verified — the real amount may be lower. Settle it with the authority.
What this page does not tell you
Whether you qualify for this permit, and whether your nationality is granted a visa on arrival, are decisions for the UAE authorities. DAYOZA publishes what the official pages state about the permit itself; it does not assess applicants.
