Hi. Thanks for sharing info. You mentioned, three months for parents. Is it for 1 year or 2 years. Also, how many time it can be extended within one year.

[@StringsNStrokes]

A 3 months visit/tourist visa can be further extended after three months so you get total 6 months. Then the parents will have to exit the country and apply again anytime. If it is one month’s visa then it can be extended twice in conjuction. Hope this helps!

Is tefl/tesol is nessasary for teaching in dubai?

Normally you would need a Bachelors's in your subject and a teaching qualification along with two years of experience. During this time since there is a lot of competition, any other certification like TEFL or TESOL on the top of your degree will get you shortlisted. The rest all depends on your interview afterward.

You need to apply for a company registration or if somebody can show that you are hired in their company and get you the visa.
