SIRA licence & visa requirements

Security staff working in Dubai must complete SIRA training and hold a valid SIRA card; Abu Dhabi guarding is regulated separately. Employment terms, working hours and end-of-service gratuity follow the UAE labour law published by MOHRE. Recruitment costs are the employer's responsibility — any request for payment for a job, visa or interview is a red flag.

Security jobs in Dubai — FAQ

Are there security guard jobs in Dubai with accommodation?

Yes, many companies recruit internationally, but the employer must sponsor the work permit and visa. Under UAE law recruitment costs are paid by the employer — never pay an agent for a job, a visa or an interview.

What are the requirements for a security officer job in the UAE?

Typically a high school certificate, good spoken English, a clean police clearance, age usually 21–45, medical fitness and the ability to work 12-hour shifts. Prior military, police or guarding experience is an advantage for supervisor roles.
