Golden Visa

The UAE’s 10-year renewable residency granted for property investment of AED 2M or more, among other routes. The threshold can be met with completed or off-plan property, including mortgaged property subject to conditions, and covers spouse and children.

Since 2024-2026 rule updates, off-plan purchases and mortgage-financed properties qualify under clearer conditions, and there is a separate 2-year investor visa with a much lower bar. The checker on this site walks your exact position through the current rules.
