What are the visa options for business owners setting up a company in Dubai?
#1
Business owners who set up a company in Dubai can apply for an investor visa or partner visa. This visa allows you to live, work, and sponsor your family in the UAE. The visa is usually valid for 2 to 10 years, depending on the setup structure and investment amount.
Free Zones often offer visa packages bundled with company registration. These may include 1 to 6 visas based on your office space or virtual office package. Mainland companies can apply for investor/partner visas through the Department of Economic Development (DED).
In addition to standard visas, entrepreneurs may qualify for a Golden Visa—a 10-year residency for investors, innovators, and high-net-worth individuals. Criteria include owning a business with a minimum capital investment or being involved in strategic sectors.
The visa process involves medical tests, Emirates ID registration, and residence stamping. A business setup consultant can guide you through each step, ensuring a smooth application.
Obtaining a residency visa through company setup not only legalizes your stay but also opens doors to banking, leasing property, and easier travel within the Gulf region.
