What types of investments qualify for the UAE Golden Visa?

The Golden Visa for Investors is available through several investment routes, including real estate valued at AED 2 million, direct business ownership with capital of at least AED 2 million, a fixed deposit in a UAE bank, or annual tax contributions of AED 250,000 or higher.

What is the difference between the 5-year and 10-year investor visas?

Real estate investors receive a 5-year visa, renewable under the same property ownership conditions. All other qualifying investor categories—business owners or deposit holders—are granted a 10-year Golden Visa with full renewal rights.

What are the minimum capital or ownership requirements?

To meet Golden Visa UAE investment requirements, applicants must show capital ownership of at least AED 2 million in a business, property, or investment deposit. Alternatively, an annual tax payment of AED 250,000 also qualifies.

Can I apply for the Golden Visa through a free zone company?

Yes, but applications based on a free zone license require an official «To Whom It May Concern» letter issued by the free zone authority. Under the government investor visa scheme, only commercial or industrial licenses are accepted.

What are the government fees for the Investor Golden Visa?

Government fees start at AED 1,100. Additional charges apply for processing inside the UAE (AED 500), delivery (AED 20), and standard innovation and knowledge fees. Medical test, Emirates ID, and insurance are billed separately.

Can I sponsor my spouse and children under my Golden Visa?

Yes, the UAE Golden Visa for Investors includes family sponsorship for spouses and unmarried children. Each family member receives a residence permit with the same validity as the primary visa holder.

Do I need to reside in the UAE full-time to keep my Golden Visa active?

No. Holders of long-term residency visas in the UAE are not subject to the 180-day stay rule. You can live abroad for extended periods without affecting your visa status.

What if I hold real estate with a mortgage—can I still apply?

Yes. Property may be partially mortgaged under the Golden Visa through real estate investment, but the unmortgaged portion must meet the AED 2 million threshold. A letter from the Dubai Land Department confirming ownership is required.
