- "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".Elena Varyukhina, CEOConsultant-methodologist in international tax planning, financial reporting, and business structuring, with over 15 years of experience
