 An investor visa in the UAE allows foreign nationals to live and work in Dubai by making a significant financial investment. This visa offers numerous benefits, including the ability to sponsor family members and access to public services. The visa can be obtained through various investment routes, such as real estate, business ventures, or public investment funds, with varying validity periods depending on the chosen category. 

Types of Investor Visas and Eligibility:

• Golden Visa for Real Estate Investment: Requires a property investment of at least AED 2 million (approximately $545,000 USD). This can be a single property or multiple properties, and previously required 50% of the value to be paid, but now mortgages are accepted with a 20% down payment.

• Renewable Two-Year Investor Visa: For individuals establishing a company as a sole shareholder.

Benefits of an Investor Visa:

• Long-term residency: The Golden Visa offers a 10-year residency permit, renewable upon meeting the requirements, says the Dubai Land Department.
