Day 3 – 10Golden Visa — questions we get asked
The main routes are: real estate investors holding property with a certified value of at least AED 2 million; capital investors with an AED 2 million deposit or investment; entrepreneurs with a project valued at AED 500,000 or more carrying an approved incubator or auditor endorsement; skilled professionals holding recognised credentials and earning a minimum monthly salary of AED 30,000; specialised talent in medicine, science, engineering, culture, arts and sport; and outstanding students and graduates. Each category has its own evidence requirements, so an honest assessment first saves months.
Yes — the property route requires real estate with a certified value of at least AED 2 million. Mortgaged properties can now qualify subject to the conditions set by the authority, off-plan units bought from approved developers are accepted, and the value of multiple properties can be aggregated to reach the threshold. The valuation must be certified by the relevant land department, and a developer sales price is not the same thing as a certified valuation.
No. A widely circulated claim about a nomination-based Golden Visa available for around AED 100,000 was publicly denied by the UAE authorities. Golden Visas are granted only through the published eligibility categories. If an agent offers you a route outside those categories, treat it as a warning sign.
No. Unlike a standard residence visa, which can lapse after a continuous absence of six months, the Golden Visa is not cancelled by extended time abroad. This is one of the main practical reasons internationally mobile founders pursue it.
