Ok TO Board

For travelers from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, SriLankan and Iraq heading to the UAE, it's crucial to have your airline ticket marked with "OK to Board" (OTB) status. If you're an Indian citizen planning a trip to Dubai, understanding the OTB process is key for a trouble-free journey. Start by securing your Dubai visa , but remember, that's only the beginning.

Before you can board your flight, you must also obtain OTB approval from the airline. This approval ensures that your visa is valid and that you are permitted to travel to Dubai. Airlines enforce this requirement to avoid penalties associated with incorrect entry documents. Since different airlines may have varying procedures for obtaining OTB, it's essential to submit your visa and passport details to our support team or the airline well in advance to avoid issues at the airport.

With the rise of visa fraud involving fake or forged documents, airlines have intensified their checks to safeguard the travel process. By thoroughly verifying visas before allowing passengers to board, airlines help ensure that only authentic documents are used, enhancing the security of international travel and providing a smoother experience for travellers.
