A partner visa in Dubai, also called an investor visa, is the residence your own UAE company sponsors for you as its owner. A mainland or free zone company with an establishment card can sponsor it, and your spouse and children can join you.

Ask on WhatsApp

What is a partner visa in Dubai?

It is the residence visa a UAE company sponsors for its own shareholder, also called an investor visa. It runs one to three years, and it renews while the company still meets the requirements.

What are the requirements for a partner visa in Dubai?

A valid trade licence with you as owner or partner, a company with an establishment card, and a passport valid for six months. You then take the medical test and Emirates ID biometrics in the UAE.

Can a free zone company give me an investor visa?

Yes. A free zone company holds an establishment card as a mainland one does, and it can sponsor its owners. The number of visas comes with your package, so we confirm it before you choose a zone.

How much does a partner visa cost in Dubai?

It depends on where the company is licensed and where you apply from, plus the medical test, Emirates ID and health insurance. Each family member adds their own permit. A 15-minute call prices it.

Is there a minimum investment for a partner visa in Dubai?

The ten-year Golden Visa opens at AED 2 million of company capital, and the five-year Green investor residence asks for AED 1 million paid in. The one you aim for sets how the company is funded.

What are the benefits of a partner visa in Dubai?

Your residence comes from the company you own, so a job change leaves it untouched. Your spouse and children can join you once your income and housing meet the family test.

Can my spouse and children join my partner visa?

Yes, once your income and housing meet the family test: AED 4,000 a month, or AED 3,000 with company housing. A business partner’s share must also be at least AED 48,000 in the partnership agreement.

What happens to my partner visa if I close the company?

Cancelling an investor’s or partner’s residence needs a certificate that the licence was cancelled or waived, so the licence and the visa are closed in a planned order.
