The UAE has permitted its nationals to travel to Lebanon starting Monday, June 29, 2026, according to Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Mofa).
However, the ministry stressed that travel will only be allowed under strict conditions, with mandatory registration on the Twajudi service required before departure. UAE nationals will not be permitted to leave from UAE airports unless they are registered on the platform.
Authorities warned that failure to comply with the requirement may lead to travel delays or potential legal consequences. The ministry also said that travellers must notify authorities of their return through the same Twajudi platform once their trip is completed.
