Alhind Tours and Travels has revealed the locations of 16 new consular service centres across the UAE after signing an agreement with Indian missions on Monday.
The centres, covering all seven emirates, are set to open on July 1, 2026. Alhind will officially take over passport, visa, and other consular services for the UAE’s 4.3 million Indian residents and tourists from India. These services were previously managed by BLS International, which has operated under contract since 2011.
Locations of the Centres
Arun Radhakrishnan, Operations Manager for Alhind in the UAE, shared the details of the 16 centres with Gulf News. Six centres will be in Abu Dhabi: Al Khalidiya, Al Reem Island, Musaffah, Madinat Zayed, Ghayathi, and Al Ain.
Dubai will have two centres located in Bur Dubai and Dubai Investment Park (DIP). Sharjah will have centres in Al Majaz and Rolla, while Ajman gets one in Al Jurf. Additional centres will be opened in Fujairah, Umm Al Quwain, Khor Fakkan (Corniche), Kalba, and Ras Al Khaimah.
"The locations of the centres have been decided based on the requirements specified by the Indian missions. The full addresses will be revealed later on," said Radhakrishnan.
He also assured that the Dubai centres will be large and equipped with multiple counters to accommodate the city’s significant Indian expat population.
