UAE Residency Overview
As a leading global hub for business and innovation, the UAE continues to welcome international investors through flexible residency programs.
The UAE Golden Visa offers 10 years of residency through real estate investment, while the Property Investment Visa grants 2-year residency for a minimum AED 750,000 investment. Both programs provide an efficient path toward long-term residency and stability in one of the world’s safest and most prosperous nations.
How to Obtain UAE Residency?
Traditionally, moving to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or other emirates requires a sponsor. However, with the UAE Golden Visa, investors can self-sponsor, bypassing this requirement entirely.
The Golden Visa is open to investors, skilled professionals, and entrepreneurs, offering a long-term residence with access to the UAE’s thriving economy and luxurious lifestyle.
To apply, you’ll need a valid passport, a clean criminal record, and UAE-approved health insurance, among other standard documents.
Benefits of the UAE Golden Visa
- Residency Freedom: Live, work, and study in the UAE for up to 10 years.
- Family Inclusion: Sponsor your spouse, children, and parents under your visa.
- Flexible Travel: Stay outside the UAE for more than six months without losing residency.
- Sponsorship Rights: Sponsor up to three domestic workers or drivers.
- Safe Environment: The UAE consistently ranks among the world’s safest countries.
Real Estate Investment Options
The UAE Golden Visa
Invest a minimum of AED 2 million (≈ USD 545,000) in qualifying real estate to obtain 10-year residency.
Other Property Visa Options
2-Year Property Visa: For investments starting at AED 750,000.

Investing in UAE Real Estate
Investing in UAE real estate means aligning with one of the most dynamic markets in the world. The country’s luxury developments, high rental yields, and investor-friendly policies ensure excellent long-term returns. Multiple properties can be combined to meet the Golden Visa threshold, and reselling property later often delivers strong capital gains.
