US Embassy and Consulate Temporarily Shut Doors in UAE

ABU DHABI, Mar 4: The US Embassy in Abu Dhabi and the Consulate General in Dubai are closed, the US Mission in the UAE said on Wednesday, adding that services cannot be provided in those facilities until further notice. All other in-person consular services are also unavailable, including visa services for foreign citizens. "For foreign passports we are currently holding, we will arrange to make them available once security permits. For now, please do not approach the embassy or consulate for any reason," it said.
