In the UAE, male children can usually be sponsored by their parents until the age of 18, or up to 21 years if they are enrolled in full-time education. Female children may continue to be sponsored as long as they are unmarried. Children below the age of 15 are generally exempt from medical fitness tests and biometric procedures.
