There are approximately 400,000 Chinese people in the United Arab Emirates as of 2023, according to the Chinese ambassador.[1] Many Chinese expatriates hail from the Wenzhou region; they are mostly businessmen and merchants who run hundreds of commodity shops through the Emirates.[2] Chinese culture in the Emirates has a sizeable presence; there are many Chinese restaurants in Dubai.[3]
