Obtaining a UAE Golden Visa

Benefits of a UAE Golden Visa

​

Long-term residency

​

The Golden Visa provides a 10-year residency right with renewal options, allowing you to build long-term plans for your family and business in one of the world’s safest and most developed countries.

​

Travel flexibility

​

Unlike standard residency visas, the Golden Visa does not restrict the time you can spend outside the UAE. You can stay abroad for more than 6 months while keeping your UAE residency status.

​

Family sponsorship

​

Golden Visa holders can sponsor immediate family members — spouses, children, and parents. This ensures a unified legal status for the family and access to the region’s top healthcare and education.

​

Expanded opportunities

​

From opening bank accounts and investing to accessing exclusive government and business services, the Golden Visa provides benefits not available under standard residency permits.
