UAE Golden Visa
The UAE Golden Visa is a long-term residency programme granting eligible foreign nationals the right to live, work, study, and do business in the UAE for renewable periods of 5 or 10 years — without requiring a national sponsor. DXB VIP handles every step of your Golden Visa UAE application in Dubai.
UAE Golden Visa - More than a Residency
The UAE golden visa is a long-term residency scheme launched by the UAE government in 2019. It allows eligible foreign nationals to reside, work, and study in the UAE for renewable 5- or 10-year periods without needing a national sponsor.
It is issued by the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security (ICA) and the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA).
Unlike standard residency visas, the Dubai Golden Visa remains valid even if you spend extended periods outside the UAE. It is fully renewable and covers your spouse, children, and household staff — making it one of the most attractive long-term residency options in the world.
Whether you are a real estate investor, business owner, skilled professional, or academic, the Golden Visa Dubai pathway is designed to welcome and retain exceptional talent and capital in the Emirates.
At DXB VIP, our business setup consultants in Dubai guide you through eligibility assessment, document preparation, and submission — ensuring a smooth, compliant application from start to finish.
