Dubai Marks Saudi National Day with Airport Tribute
The General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) in Dubai commemorated Saudi Arabia’s 95th National Day on September 23 with a series of coordinated activities at Dubai International Airport’s Terminal 1.
Arriving Saudi travelers were greeted with Emirati and Saudi flags, commemorative gifts, and a visible display of hospitality reflecting the close historical and diplomatic ties between the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Smart gates at the terminal were lit in green, and children received themed gifts from official mascots, Salem and Salama.
In a gesture of symbolic diplomacy, passports of Saudi visitors were stamped with a custom design bearing the official 95th National Day emblem and the phrase “UAE_Saudi, Together-Forever.”
The initiative forms part of GDRFA Dubai’s broader effort to foster cross-cultural ties and promote people-centered services, aligning with the Emirate’s strategic positioning as a hub of international cooperation and quality of life.
