"A UAE residency visa is an official permit that allows foreign nationals to live in the country long-term. It grants the right to legally reside, work, run a business, access healthcare and education, and open bank accounts. The visa is issued for a period of 2 to 10 years and can be renewed if the conditions are met.
In fact, it is the UAE’s version of a residence permit — with its own specifics. It requires a mandatory medical examination, the issuance of an Emirates ID, and securing residency status through a local sponsor — such as an employer, property ownership, or one’s own business".

How to Obtain a UAE Residence Visa
Choosing a Sponsor
A UAE residence visa is issued only through a sponsor — a company, educational institution, existing resident, or in some cases, the applicant themselves.
We help you choose the best option for your situation.
Determining the Visa Category
Once the sponsor is chosen, we determine which visa category fits your case: employment, freelance, investor, family, or student.
This defines the application process, validity period, and document requirements.
Prepare Your Documents
We gather and translate the necessary documents: passport, photos, diplomas, CV, and medical reports.
In some cases — proof of income, property ownership, or a contract.
Visa Application
We submit the visa application on your behalf through the relevant UAE authority or online platform, depending on the emirate and visa type.
Medical Check & Biometrics
After approval, you undergo a medical exam and submit biometric data at an accredited clinic.
Issuance of Residence Visa
Once all steps are complete, you receive your Emirates ID and the residence visa. From this moment, you are officially allowed to live, work, and use financial and government services in the UAE.

FAQ
Yes, and it’s important to plan for them. Required expenses depend on your visa category. Examples:
Medical exam: AED 300−1,000 ($ 80−270)

Government fees: AED 200−1,000 ($ 55−270)
Yes, in most cases. You can complete the application remotely, but you’ll still need to visit the UAE to undergo the medical test, submit biometric data, and finalize your Emirates ID. This short trip is mandatory.
The process usually takes 2 to 6 weeks from the moment all documents are submitted. The exact timeline depends on the visa type, accuracy of your documents, and the workload of the immigration authority.
No. Language tests or language proficiency certificates are not required to obtain a UAE residence visa. However, all documents must be submitted in English or accompanied by a certified translation.
Yes. You can apply for visas for your spouse, children, and parents. Requirements vary depending on your status. For example, if you are the sponsor, you’ll need to prove income and have suitable accommodation.
A visa can be denied if there are errors in your documents, insufficient income, missing qualifications, or if you’re subject to a travel ban. We assess your risks in advance and help you minimize them.
Not if your visa is tied to a specific employer — you may only work for the company that sponsors your visa. The only exception is the freelance visa, which allows working with multiple clients.
