The UAE stands out as one of the world's most appealing business hubs. Its Residence by Investment program is designed to offer long-term residency to foreign investors, entrepreneurs, and skilled individuals, including specialists, students, and researchers, who contribute significantly to the country's development.
Real estate investors qualify for a 10-year renewable residence visa by meeting one of the following criteria:
To apply for UAE residence, completed application forms, appropriate fees, and supporting documents are required. Golden Residence visas, valid for 10 years and renewable, are issued upon meeting the criteria. The visas remain valid even if the holder resides outside the UAE, provided the investments are maintained for at least three years.
Upon completion of initial due diligence checks and payment of the retainer, the UAE residence application is submitted to the government.
Upon meeting the requirements and pending initial approval, successful applicants are granted a six-month multiple-entry visa. They travel to the UAE for an ID card application and medical check. Full approval follows, and the residence visa is issued.
The processing time for the residence application exceeds eight weeks.
