There are several pathways to obtaining residency in Dubai, each with its own requirements and procedures.
Below, I present some of the most common pathways:
Investor Residence Visa:
This pathway is targeted at investors and entrepreneurs who wish to establish businesses in Dubai.
Requirements typically include investing a specific amount of capital in a local business or real estate property in Dubai.
Depending on the investment amount, you can obtain a short or long-term residency visa.
Employment Residence Visa:
Highly skilled professionals can obtain a sponsored residency visa from an employer in Dubai.
Employers are usually responsible for applying for the visa on behalf of the employee and providing necessary documents such as a job contract and offer letter.
This pathway may be an option for those who secure employment in Dubai before their relocation.
Retiree Residence Visa:
Dubai offers residency visas for retirees who wish to spend their retirement in the emirate.
Requirements may vary but typically include demonstrating regular and sufficient income to support oneself and family without the need to work in Dubai.
Student Residence Visa:
Students wishing to study at educational institutions in Dubai can apply for a student residence visa.
Requirements may include admission to a recognized educational institution in Dubai and demonstrating sufficient funds to cover study and living expenses.
Family Member Residence Visa:
Family members of residents or citizens of Dubai can apply for residence visas based on their family relationship.
Requirements vary depending on the type of relationship (spouse, children, parents, etc.) and may include documents proving the family bond and financial capability to support oneself in Dubai.
