Own property worth at least AED 2,000,000 and you qualify for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa — no sponsor, family included, and no residency lapse from long stays abroad. Ready and off-plan property from approved developers counts, multiple properties can be combined to reach the threshold, and mortgaged property is accepted within the authority's rules.
The process
- 1Title deed issued by the Land Department (in Dubai: DLD)
- 2Valuation confirmed at AED 2M or above
- 3Golden Visa application through the approved channels
- 4Medical fitness test, health insurance and biometrics
- 510-year e-residency and Emirates ID issued
Is the Golden Visa renewable?
Yes — it renews every 10 years as long as you still hold qualifying property at renewal time. Selling the property removes the basis of the visa.
Can I buy remotely from abroad?
Yes, through a notarized power of attorney; you attend in person for biometrics and the medical test when the visa is issued.
Alghafat runs both sides in one place: finding and buying the qualifying property through our real-estate platform, then the full Golden Visa file — valuation, application, medical and biometrics — until the Emirates ID is in your hand.
