Questions about this visa

How long does a family visa take?

Once your documents are complete and attested, most family visas are done within one to two weeks, including medical and Emirates ID. Attestation of certificates from abroad can take longer, so start that first.

Does my marriage or birth certificate need attestation?

Yes, if it was issued outside the UAE. It needs the stamps of your home country and the UAE embassy there, then the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We can arrange all of it.

Is there a sticker in the passport?

No. UAE residence is digital and linked to the Emirates ID. You receive the e-visa and the Emirates ID card — nothing is stamped in the passport.

Is there a salary requirement to sponsor family on a Golden Visa?

Golden Visa holders generally do not need to meet the usual salary threshold to sponsor their family. We confirm your case before you pay anything.

What if the application is rejected?

That is why we check eligibility before filing. The decision is always the authorities', and some government fees are not refundable — we tell you the risk upfront if your case is unusual.
