Golden Visa (10-Year) & Green Visa (5-Year)

Long-term UAE residency without a sponsor — eligibility checked honestly, file processed fully.

Quick answer: The UAE Golden Visa grants 10-year self-sponsored residency to investors, entrepreneurs, skilled professionals (typically salary AED 30,000+ with a degree), scientists and outstanding students; the Green Visa grants 5 years to skilled workers (AED 15,000+ salary) and freelancers/self-employed. Al Karam checks your eligibility against current ICP criteria and processes the complete application.

The ICP currently describes Golden Residency as a renewable 5- or 10-year residence route without a sponsor, with categories including investors, entrepreneurs, exceptional talents and outstanding students. Green Residency is a renewable 5-year self-sponsored route for eligible skilled workers, freelancers, self-employed people and investors or business partners.

Each category has its own evidence and approval conditions. We assess the likely route, organise the supporting file and coordinate application stages; eligibility and final approval remain with ICP or the relevant authority.

Check the current categories: Use the official ICP Golden Residency page before applying. Thresholds and supporting-document requirements can change.

Frequently asked questions

Who qualifies for the UAE Golden Visa?

Main routes: property investors (AED 2M+), company investors/entrepreneurs, skilled professionals earning typically AED 30,000+ monthly with an attested degree, plus scientists, doctors, engineers and outstanding students. We verify your route before you spend anything.

What is the difference between Golden and Green visa?

Golden = 10 years, higher thresholds. Green = 5 years, for skilled employees earning AED 15,000+ or freelancers/self-employed with income proof — no employer sponsor needed for either.

Can Golden Visa holders sponsor family?

Yes — spouse and children get residency matching your visa duration, and there is no maximum age limit for sons under current rules for many categories. We process the family file together with yours.

Do I need to keep an employer after getting it?

No — both visas are self-sponsored. You can change jobs or run your business without affecting residency.

How long does the Golden Visa process take?

Straightforward salaried-professional files often complete within 2–4 weeks including medical and stamping; investor routes depend on evidence verification.
