Since its introduction in 2019, many expats have been trying to get the UAE Golden Visa. However, all foreigners are not eligible to apply for it. In this post, you will learn about the benefits of the UAE Golden Visa, the application process involved, and how you can obtain one with the help of a service provider.

The Benefits of the UAE Golden Visa

As one of the best investment destinations in the world, the UAE attracts many foreign investors, entrepreneurs, and professionals. The UAE Golden Visa, a legal document, is one of the many government initiatives set up to give a boost to the economy. It involves offering long-term (5 or 10-year) residence visas to individuals and allowing foreigners to live, study, and work in the UAE without the need to have a UAE national as a sponsor. Furthermore, the holders of this visa don’t have to worry about the security of their future in the country and also can enjoy 100% ownership of their businesses on the mainland.

Who All Can Apply

For the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, investors with public investments of AED 10 million (a company or investment fund) or more are eligible to apply. However, the total investment in real estate must be less than 60%, and the invested amount should not be loaned. In the case of assets, investors should have complete ownership.

Additionally, the investor should retain the investment for at least three years. This 10-year visa may also be given to business partners, provided each partner’s contribution is AED 10 million. Apart from the visa holder, the spouse and children, one executive director, and one advisor can also be included.

Individuals with specialized talents such as doctors, researchers, scientists, artists, and remarkable students (3.8 GPA or more) are also eligible to apply for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa. These individuals are granted visas on the basis of accreditations granted by the respective departments. The visa can be extended to their spouses and children as well.
