Amer Dubai

[shawarma]

The Aamer / Amer / Ameer Service (Amer means "order") from the Dubai Naturalisation and Residency Department (DNRD) was launched in March 2007. Phone them up to ask about visa and residence issues in Dubai. There was a press release 29 March 2007. Has anyone tried it yet? How was it for you?

• Contact details are tel 800-5111 (toll free in the UAE), fax +971-4-3981177, email aamer at dnrd dot ae.
• Amer service operated by the DNRD. Presumably anyone in the UAE can phone them though, except if there are any differences in how visa rules are operated in the different emirates, then I guess Amer information will only apply to Dubai.
• The Aamer service operates 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
• Your communication will be "dealt with secretly". Whatever that means.
• Brigadier Mohammad Al Merri, Director General of the Department said the the motto is "We will be happy to receive your suggestions and your complaints will be taken in to consideration ... informing us is of great help."

Might also be called AlAmer / AlAmeer / AlAamer / Al Ameen / AlAmeen / Al Amen / AlAmen service. Not clear if any or all names are officialy correct.
