How it works in the UAE
A UAE residence visa is always tied to a sponsor: an employer, a company in a free zone, ownership, or a relative. Cases are handled by ICP and, in Dubai, GDRFA — each emirate has its own procedures and reception windows. Mandatory part that applies to everyone — a medical examination and biometrics for the Emirates ID.
What we need from you to get started
- International passport with ample remaining validity
- Grounds: employment, your own free zone company, real estate, or family
- Readiness to attend in person for a medical examination and biometrics — this cannot be done remotely
- Photo to local standards, white background
Where things most often go wrong
- —Expected to handle everything remotely — the medical check and biometrics require your physical presence
- —Chose a free zone based on package price without checking whether their business activity is permitted there
- —Exceeded the entry permit validity — it has a limited window, and the entire package starts over
- —Didn’t account for the absence rule: a residency visa lapses if you stay out of the country for too long
Unlike Europe, where status is granted directly by the state, in the UAE it is always through a sponsor. So the choice of sponsor — a company, free zone, or employer — and that is the key decision, not gathering paperwork.
Fees, processing times, and institutional requirements change several times per year, which is why they are not listed here: we verify and quote them as of the date of submission.
