🇦🇪 Visas et immigration — United Arab Emirates

Détails du visa

The UAE offers multiple residency pathways for founders. A standard employment/investor visa (2–3 years) is issued through your company licence. The Golden Visa (5 or 10 years) is available to investors, entrepreneurs, and specialised talent — criteria vary but typically require a minimum investment of AED 2 million or a qualifying startup endorsed by a recognised incubator. The Digital Nomad Visa (1 year, renewable) requires proof of remote employment or freelance income of at least USD 3,500/month. Visa holders can sponsor dependents. Note that visa validity is tied to your trade licence — if the licence lapses, the visa is at risk of cancellation.
