We continue to advise exercise a high degree of caution in the United Arab Emirates. Demonstrations and protest activity may also occur, and local security situations could deteriorate with little notice. Avoid all demonstrations and protests (see ‘Safety’).

There’s an increased risk of terrorism, including threats against military bases. Terrorist attacks could occur at any time and target locations frequented by foreigners including places of worship, hotels, transport hubs, shopping malls, markets, residential compounds and tourist locations.

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in the UAE due to the threat of terrorism.
