These banks publish access to a lounge programme but not how many visits are free, so visits may be charged. They are not ranked for that reason.

Questions people ask

Which UAE credit cards give unlimited lounge access?

Those with the lowest annual fee are the Ajman Bank LIFE Platinum Credit Card (no annual fee), the Emirates NBD SHARE Visa Signature (no annual fee) and the RAKBANK RAKislamic World Credit Card (no annual fee). Check each card's page for who the visits cover.

Yes. 34 cards with a stated number of lounge visits charge no annual fee, for example the Ajman Bank LIFE Platinum Credit Card (unlimited visits), the Emirates NBD SHARE Visa Signature (unlimited visits) and the RAKBANK RAKislamic World Credit Card (unlimited visits). Some ask for a higher salary or a minimum monthly spend, which each card's page shows.

What is the lowest salary for a credit card with lounge access?

AED 5,000 a month is the lowest published minimum among cards with a stated number of lounge visits, for example the ADIB Booking.com Visa Signature and the ADIB Marriott Bonvoy Visa Signature Covered Card. Cards with unlimited visits start at AED 5,000 a month.

Do lounge visits cover guests and supplementary cardholders?

It depends on the card. Some banks let a guest join a visit or give supplementary cardholders visits of their own, others cover only the main cardholder, and some charge for guests. Each card's page quotes the bank's own wording; where it says nothing about guests, assume the visits are for the main cardholder.
