The official language is Arabic, but English has actually become a second language and is widely used in all spheres of life — from business to everyday communication. I found that almost everyone I interacted with—in hotels, restaurants, shops— spoke English fluently. In addition, due to the large number of foreign workers, Hindi, Urdu, Tagalog, Russian and many other languages are often heard here. This language mosaic gives the city a special flavor, and you feel like you are part of a global world.

Healthcare in Dubai is considered one of the best in the region. It operates both public and private clinics, equipped with modern equipment and highly qualified personnel. I visited Dubai Healthcare City, a special zone that houses medical institutions, research centers, and educational institutions. Health insurance is mandatory for all residents, and many employers provide policies for their employees. Tourists can also receive medical care, but it is recommended to have international health insurance. I was impressed by the efficiency and professionalism of local doctors, which gives confidence in case of need.

When choosing an anchor for a yacht, the following factors should be considered: Yacht Size: Make sure the anchor matches the size and weight of your yacht. The larger the yacht, the heavier and more powerful the anchor should be. Bottom type: Choose an anchor depending on the type of bottom in the areas where you plan to swim (sand, clay, gravel or stones). It is better to keep different anchors in different types of soil. Sailing conditions: Consider the conditions in which you will use the anchor, including the strength of currents, waves and wind. Anchor Type: Choose the appropriate anchor type (plow, danforth, mushroom, etc.) depending on the above factors.

Yes, absolutely! Renting a yacht in Dubai for a few days is a great way to enjoy a relaxing vacation on the water, explore the coast and visit the nearby islands.

Dubai attracts businesses and investors due to the absence of personal income tax and corporate tax for most companies. This makes the city appealing to professionals and entrepreneurs. I spoke with expats who noted that the lack of income tax allows them to keep more of their earnings. However, since 2018, a 5% VAT (Value Added Tax) has been introduced on most goods and services. This step is aimed at diversifying government revenue. The overall tax system is transparent and streamlined, which facilitates doing business and stimulates economic activity.
