Are you considering a move to Dubai, the largest and most populous city in the United Arab Emirates? You’re not alone – many people move there for work.

What are some of the benefits of moving to this vibrant city-state? We’ve rounded up the top five reasons you should move to Dubai, and if you’re moving there already, this is what you have to look forward to.

Reason 1: The Weather
The weather in Dubai is amazing if you love soaking up the sun’s rays. Dubai has an average of 342 sunny days per year. And those sunny days are warm – the temperature rarely drops below 20 degrees Celsius.

If you’re from a colder climate, such as Canada, you finally have the chance to sit outside in December and not see a single snowflake. And because Dubai enjoys such fabulous weather, that means there’s plenty of things to do, which brings us to Reason 2…

Reason 2: Lots of Activities
Love the beach? Dubai has a long coastline with miles and miles of sand. Do you prefer your sand without water? Dubai’s desert makes a great place for a camping excursion.

If you’re not an outdoors person, don’t worry. There are plenty of things to do inside. Dubai has fantastic, moderately priced restaurants, lots of shopping, cinemas, ice rinks, and aquariums. Whatever you like to do, you can find it in Dubai.

Reason 3: No Taxes
Nothing in life is certain except for death and taxes… unless you’re in Dubai. The emirate is tax-free.
You don’t pay taxes on your salary. You don’t pay taxes on any purchases you make. That means there’s more money in your pocket at the end of the month. Expats who move to Dubai can amass quite a large amount of savings if they’re savvy.

Reason 4: Generous Salaries
One of the reasons people move to Dubai for work is because the salaries are higher than they would be in their home countries. Why wouldn’t you want to be paid more to work in a country with fantastic weather and lots of attractions?

And when you’re not paying taxes on a large salary, there’s more take-home pay. At the end of the day, you come out
ahead on the deal.

Reason 5: Just Because It’s in the Desert, Doesn’t Mean It’s in the Middle of Nowhere
When you think of Dubai, the first thing that comes to mind is, “It’s in a desert.” But that doesn’t mean it’s cut off from the rest of the world.
You can easily catch a flight to Europe or Asia from Dubai. If you’ve always wanted to see other parts of the world, now’s your chance!
