Expatriates and foreign visitors - both male and female - enjoy a relaxed and pleasant lifestyle in Dubai. There is virtually no crime, the city is clean, apartments and villas are modern and spacious and the climate is pleasant for most of the year. There are many clubs and societies in Dubai. Freedom of worship is allowed to all religions, and Christian churches have existed in Dubai for many years. Foreign newspapers, magazines, films and videos are readily available. Alcohol may be consumed at home provide a permit is obtained, or in hotels, and on licensed club premises. Women can drive and move about unaccompanied.

Transportation

It is essential to have a car as Dubai is a spacious city with most residences situated some distance from shops, schools and the office. Most Japanese, European and American models are readily available and there is an active second-hand market. Vehicle third party insurance is compulsory. Dubai has an excellent road system. Driving is on the right hand side of the road. A vehicle licence may be secured for first registration, then subject to annual renewal - following a road worthiness test. Taxis are easily obtainable in Dubai. The Dubai Transport Corporation's ivory coloured cabs are fitted with fare meters. Driving licences issued by some overseas governments may be exchanged for a Dubai licence. Where reciprocal arrangements do not exist, it is necessary to take a driving test to obtain a licence. Full details about obtaining and exchanging driving licences are available from the Traffic Department of the Police, telephone number +971 4 2694444 (24 hour), or by writing to PO Box 1493, Dubai. People using taxis will have to pay an applicable road toll if passing through 'Salik', the brand name for Dubai's toll system. The 24-hour toll system levies a toll of Dh4 ($1.089) when a taxi passes under the electronic gates. Alternate routes are also available.

Clothing

For men, office wear is generally lightweight trousers, long or short sleeved shirts and ties. Jackets are worn for formal visits to Government offices and important meetings. Normally, a lounge suit is acceptable for most evening business functions, but a dinner jacket may also be required for some social occasions. Even in the private sector wearing a tie is quite the norm. For ladies, normal smart lightweight office wear, such as a dress or long sleeved blouse and skirt is expected, or national dress. All offices are air-conditioned. In the evenings for informal dinners, casual evening dresses and skirts are usually worn. It is also recommended that a shawl or stole should be included in ladies' wardrobes, as the air-conditioning in hotels and restaurants can be quite strong. For women, as summers are very hot and humidity can on occasions be high, a variety of cotton outfits are recommended. Cotton trousers are popular with expatriate wives for casual wear and, although revealing sun dresses and tops are acceptable for home wear, they should be avoided in the city. Even in winter, temperatures at midday rarely fall below 21°C (70°F) but a sweater or cardigan is useful for when the temperature drops in the evening. A coat or raincoat is unnecessary, as is an umbrella. All type of beachwear including bikinis is acceptable but only on the beach or by the pool.

Medical Services
The Health and Medical Services Department provides medical care for all UAE nationals, visitors and resident expatriates. Dubai has many well equipped public and private hospitals offering high quality health and dental care services. There are several hospitals in Dubai and government clinics in the districts of Jumairah, Satwa, Buhail, Rashidiya, Qusais, Hatta, Al-Lusaili, Jebel Ali, and at the airport and Port Rashid. Emergency medical care in Dubai is free for anyone and there are no restrictions. For non-urgent health care, any UAE resident seeking treatment may register for a health card for which a fee is paid. New arrivals are advised to register immediately for a health card. They may otherwise have to pay full medical costs after the first two visits.
