Overview

The right visa depends on who you are

The UAE offers long-term residence through investment, property, talent, employment and self-sponsorship. Each route has its own conditions, costs and renewal rules, and some can be combined with a company you set up.

We assess your profile, recommend the most suitable visa and handle entry permits, status change, medical tests, Emirates ID and stamping, so you only show up where you must.
