The General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs–Dubai (GDRFA Dubai) has launched a special initiative as part of the Dubai Fitness Challenge 30×30 activities, welcoming travelers at Dubai International Airport with a custom stamp bearing the challenge’s logo. The initiative embodies Dubai’s ever-renewing spirit and reflects its commitment to enhancing quality of life while promoting a culture of fitness and wellness among both residents and visitors.
The initiative aligns with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council, which aims to make physical fitness a daily lifestyle that enhances health and happiness, positioning Dubai as the most active and dynamic city in the world.
In this context, Brigadier Faisal Abdullah Al Nuaimi, Assistant Director General for the Airports Sector, explained that this step carries a message from Dubai to the world: that movement and vitality are part of the city’s identity. He said, “Through the 30×30 Fitness Challenge stamp, we celebrate the spirit of Dubai—a city that never stops moving. This initiative reflects our commitment at GDRFA Dubai to supporting the leadership’s vision of instilling a culture of healthy living, not only within our local community but also through the experience of every traveler arriving or departing from Dubai International Airport, making them part of the positive energy that distinguishes Dubai from other cities around the world.”
Brigadier Al Nuaimi added that GDRFA Dubai is keen for its participation in community initiatives to extend beyond institutional engagement—to reinforce its role in serving people and strengthening Dubai’s global reputation as a city of innovation, humanity, and quality of life.
The 30×30 Fitness Challenge stamp at Dubai International Airport serves as a symbolic gesture that showcases the Emirate’s distinction in connecting the concepts of sports, health, and hospitality—leaving every traveler who arrives in or departs from Dubai with a mark that reflects the city’s vibrant and ever-evolving values.
