Hi everyone! Has anyone applied for DTV recently in Dubai? How long did the processing take? I submitted my application on June 5th, and the status is still "Processing Pending Document Check."

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about the processing time for a DTV application submitted on June 5 in Dubai, mentioning that the status is still pending. Responses indicated that while one user shared their successful application took about 3 weeks, others noted that 5 to 6 working days is not an unusual wait and emphasized that the embassy suggests a processing time of up to 2 weeks.

Hi Roman! Just to share, one of our applicants from the UAE (enrolling in our cooking school program) submitted their DTV application on 16 May and received approval on 5 June, so about 3 weeks total. Hope that helps as a reference!

Hi Roman,

No idea about Dubai, sorry. However, if you applied on June 5th, you haven't waited for a long time yet. It's been like 5 or 6 working days, assuming there was no holiday.
