What are the requirements for a 10-year Investor Visa in the UAE?

  • In Dubai, property valued at a minimum of 2 million AED qualifies for the Golden Residence Visa. The applicant can hold multiple properties under their name. If the property is purchased through a developer or bank mortgage, a statement of account from the developer or a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the bank is required to proceed with the residence visa application.

    Applicants must be physically present in the UAE. If a property is jointly owned by a husband and wife, a marriage certificate attested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) and legally translated into Arabic is necessary for both to participate in one property. If the property is jointly owned and the value is below 4 million, only one person is eligible to apply for the Golden Visa, who can then sponsor the other spouse. The property share must be equal between both parties, or the primary visa holder will be the one with the highest share.

    Owners of title deeds can apply for the Golden Residence Visa if the market value exceeds 2 million AED, and an official evaluation certificate is mandatory. Joint ownership of title deeds with a partner is acceptable, provided the applicant’s share is at least 2 million AED. It’s essential that the applicant’s name on the title deed matches the name in their passport.

What are the required documents needed for a 10-year investor Visa in the UAE?

  • To apply for a long-term resident Visa in the UAE, you’ll need to gather the following documents:

    1. A title deed issued for property in Dubai, with a minimum property value of 2 million AED (properties in other emirates and DIFCA are not accepted).
    2. A clear copy of your passport (valid for at least 6 months).
    3. Your old Emirates ID, if applicable.
    4. A high-quality digital photo of yourself that meets the specifications outlined by the Federal Authority for Identity Citizenship, Customs & Port Security.
    5. Applicants from certain countries (Iran, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan) must provide their National ID.
    6. Health insurance coverage from any insurance company in the UAE.

    Please note that according to GDRFA regulations, medical insurance is mandatory for all residence permit applications. We can assist you in completing your medical insurance registration for yourself and your family. You have the option to choose between DHA Basic Insurance or Comprehensive Insurance.

UAE golden visa requirements

The UAE’s Golden Residence visa offers various categories of beneficiaries, including real estate investors who can secure a renewable 10-year residence visa by fulfilling one of the following criteria:

  1. Purchasing a property valued at a minimum of AED 2 million (approximately USD 550,000).
  2. Purchasing a property valued at a minimum of AED 2 million (approximately USD 550,000) with a loan from specific local banks.
  3. Investing in one or more off-plan properties valued at a minimum of AED 2 million (approximately USD 550,000) from approved local real estate companies.

Procedures and time frame of the UAE golden visa

To apply for UAE residence, applicants must complete the necessary application forms and submit them along with the required fees and supporting documents. Golden Residence visas, once obtained, are valid for 10 years and can be renewed thereafter, even if the visa holder resides outside the UAE. Investments made for obtaining the visa must be held for a minimum of three years.

Once initial due diligence checks are completed and the retainer fee is paid, the application for UAE residence can be submitted to the government. Upon meeting all requirements and pending initial approval, successful applicants receive a six-month multiple-entry visa to travel to the UAE. Once in the country, they undergo a medical check and apply for an ID card. Upon completion of these steps, full approval is granted, and the client receives the residence visa.

The processing time for the residence application typically exceeds eight weeks.
