UAE Residency Guidance

Golden Visa – up to 10 years

The UAE offers a Golden visa for foreigners, allowing them to reside, work or study in the country for up to 10 years with exclusive benefits. Eligibility depends on the category, including investors, entrepreneurs, scientists, and humanitarian pioneers. Golden visa holders can sponsor their families and helpers, and the visa does not require a sponsor. This article will outline the requirements for each category and the eligibility criteria.

Investor (partner) Visa – 2 years

Investor (partner) residency visa can be obtained because of owning or having a stake of no less than 20% in a legal entity in the UAE. Such visa is issued based on the person present in a company’s business license and Memorandum (Articles) of Association. This approach to obtain residency in this prosperous country founding a company is a cheaper way to achieving such goals as compared to purchasing real estate.

Employment Visa – 2 years

Employment Visa is issued for foreign nationals who are employed by a UAE based company. The Employment Visa allows the employee to work in UAE for two (2) years automatically renewed if the same conditions are met.

Whether you’re a foreign national investor looking to invest in the UAE, with aspirations for a 2–10-year Golden Visa boasting exclusive benefits like no sponsor requirement and the ability to sponsor family members, or an entrepreneur aiming to establish your company in the UAE and in need of a partner visa, or perhaps you’re a skilled foreign national employed by a UAE-based company, seeking a 2-year Employment Visa for residency purposes – Rodion Group has you covered.

The Requirements for the Golden Visa

If you’re considering the Golden Visa in the UAE, here are the criteria based on different categories:

  1. Investors in Public Investments: For investors in public investments, participation in an investment fund can secure a 10-year Golden Visa without the need for a sponsor. You must furnish a letter from an accredited UAE investment fund confirming your deposit of at least two million AED. Alternatively, having a valid commercial or industrial license and a memorandum of association indicating capital not less than two million AED can also qualify you.
  2. Real Estate Investors: Owning property or a group of properties valued at more than two million AED qualifies you for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa under the same conditions and without a sponsor.
  3. Entrepreneurs: Entrepreneurs venturing into innovative economic projects can obtain a 5-year Golden Visa. This requires specific approvals from a UAE auditor, local authorities, and an accredited business incubator to establish your proposed activity in the country.
  4. Outstanding Specialized Talents: Professionals such as doctors, scientists, athletes, doctoral degree holders, and specialists in engineering and science may secure a 10-year Golden Visa if they meet the prescribed requirements.
