Visa Assistance
UAE Investor & Partner Visa
Residence for shareholders and partners, issued against your own trade licence.
If you hold shares in a UAE company, you can sponsor your own residence through it. The investor or partner visa is the standard route for founders and shareholders, and once issued it lets you sponsor your spouse, children and domestic staff, open personal bank accounts and obtain a UAE driving licence. We process the entry permit, status change, medical, Emirates ID and stamping as one tracked file.
