Life in Dubai
Dubai is one of seven Emirates which make up the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is a tolerant and safe yet cosmopolitan and vibrant place to live, with an incredible amount of things to do and see.
Over 90% of the population are expatriates meaning it has a huge international community. Dubai is the gateway to Asia and the Middle East offering year-round sunshine, beautiful beaches, theme parks, luxurious hotels, shopping malls and events throughout the year.
English is widely spoken and you will see many familiar shops, restaurants and products from home. Islam is a way of life in the city although due to the multicultural nature of the city, religious festivals of all denominations are celebrated.
Salaries in Dubai are paid tax-free.
