A CL601 crew landed at OMDB and was given taxi instructions which included a Taxiway KA hold point; but since the main airport diagram did not contain the point ATC instructed them to hold after passing KA. Taxiway hold positions were described on a different chart; not referenced on the main airport diagram.

Narrative
Landing at Dubai International Airport; UAE the following 2 incidents occurred. Landing on Runway 30L; our instructions were; 'Exit high-speed on K-8; followed by right turn on K.' Next; we were instructed to contact Ground. Ground instructions to us were as follows: 'Keep it rolling on K; to KA.' Pilot not flying looked at his commercial chart trying to locate KA. When one looks at the current chart; no such taxiway is indicated. All of a sudden Ground Control said; 'Stop the aircraft; you just transgressed KA and I told you to hold short of KA.' After the stop; we were instructed to continue onto L3; to M; and a right turn onto L. We never did see L; nor is it depicted on the Commercial airport diagram. Subsequently; we stopped; held short of Runway 30R; and asked for 'progressive.' On this particular day Ground Control was very busy; transmissions were stepped on each other; and we did read back all of our instructions. No runway incursions ever occurred on our part. After shut-down; we reviewed our charts. They were current but the taxiways in question (KA and L) are not depicted.
