Possible routes

Answer the questions above. Each yes opens a possible 10-year Golden Visa route.

Note: Based on the Golden Visa categories published by the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security (ICP) and GDRFA Dubai as of 2026. This is a screening aid, not a decision: the authority assesses each file, documents must be attested and fees apply (typically AED 2,500 to 5,000 in government charges plus medical and Emirates ID). The visa lasts 10 years, is self-sponsored, allows unlimited time outside the UAE and lets you sponsor your spouse and children of any age.
