A 10-year ‘Golden Visa’ for property investors is a new residence option introduced by the UAE government for high-net-worth individuals.
Apart from the 10-year validity, the additional advantages of obtaining this type of residency include:
- Extended stay outside the UAE (i.e. there’s no limit on how long you can stay abroad)
- Favourable sponsorship rights (you can sponsor your spouse, parents and unmarried children for the same 10-year period; you can also sponsor up to 3 housemaids and drivers)
- Right to work (holders of this type of visa may work in any company in Dubai, provided that MOHRE permission is obtained)
The key requirement for getting a 10-Year ‘Golden Visa’ as a Property Investor is investing a minimum of 2 million AED in Dubai real estate.
With no annual property tax, income tax, capital gains tax, rental revenue tax, or Value Added Tax (VAT), Dubai is the most investor-friendly destination with higher property yields than London and New York, so there are basically no downsides.
