Golden Visa through property

A 10-year residence visa for owners of UAE property worth at least AED 2 million.

Residence
10 years, renewable
Usually takes
2 to 4 weeks after the title deed

If you own property in the UAE worth AED 2 million or more, you can apply for a 10-year Golden Visa. It doesn’t need an employer or a company, it isn’t cancelled if you spend long periods abroad, and it can cover your family. Mortgaged and some off-plan properties can also qualify.

What you’ll need

  • Title deed, or the developer’s documents for an off-plan property
  • A property valuation, if the authority asks for one
  • For a mortgaged property, a letter from the bank
  • Passport and passport photo
  • Health insurance valid in the UAE

How it goes

  1. 1 Check that the property and its value qualify
  2. 2 Apply through the Dubai Land Department or the relevant authority
  3. 3 Entry permit, or change of status inside the UAE
  4. 4 Medical test and Emirates ID biometrics
  5. 5 Golden Visa issued, then add your family members

Rules, thresholds and government fees change. We confirm the current requirements with the issuing authority before you pay anything.
