A French team in the UAE

Dubai visa services,
to settle and reside.

Two routes, one contact. A residence visa through the company you set up in a free zone, or a Golden Visa handled from application through to renewal.

Get a Dubai visa: two routes

We focus on settling: a residence visa through your company, and the Golden Visa. Family sponsorship, renewals and accounting are organised around these two offers.

01

Dubai residence visa through a free zone company

To live and work in the UAE, the usual path is to set up a company in a free zone, then apply for a residence visa attached to that company. As a partner of IFZA, Ajman Free Zone and Ajman New Ventures, we help you choose the zone and activity, then follow the licence and the visa through to the authorities’ decision.

Company formation is the vehicle for the visa, not a separate offer. Once the company is in place, accounting can take over. We can also help you sponsor your family, and handle licence and visa renewals.

  • Choosing the free zone and activity
  • Forming the company, as the support for the visa
  • Applying for the residence visa
  • Family sponsorship, where it applies
  • Renewals, and accounting if you want it

02

Dubai Golden Visa: application, follow-up, renewal

The UAE Golden Visa is a long-term residence permit, which can run for up to 10 years depending on the category set by the authorities (including investors, entrepreneurs and talent), without the usual company sponsor. We review eligibility case by case, prepare the file, follow the process and support you at renewal.

The criteria are set by the authorities and can change. We rely on the texts in force, including the official u.ae Golden Visa page.

  • An eligibility reading, case by case
  • Preparing and filing the application
  • Follow-up through to the authorities’ decision
  • Renewal, when the time comes
  • Family sponsorship, subject to the applicable rules

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers, with no promise of approval. If your situation sits outside the usual frame, write to us: it is often clearer once we see the file.

How do I get a Dubai visa?

There are two main routes: a Dubai residence visa by setting up a free zone company, or a Dubai Golden Visa if you are eligible. Message us on WhatsApp: we will tell you which route fits your situation, then we prepare the file.

What is the difference between a residence visa through a company and the Golden Visa?

A residence visa obtained through a free zone company generally allows you to live and work in the UAE for as long as the company and the visa remain valid. The Golden Visa is a long-term residence permit, which can run for up to 10 years depending on the category set by the authorities, without the usual company sponsor. The two routes have different criteria; we will tell you which one fits your situation.

How do I get a residence visa by setting up a company?

You choose a free zone and an activity, form the company (licence), then apply for a residence visa attached to that company. As a partner of IFZA, Ajman Free Zone and Ajman New Ventures, we guide you through these steps. Company formation is the vehicle for the visa; accounting can follow once the company is in place. Approval belongs to the authorities.

Is the Golden Visa always issued for 10 years?

No. The duration depends on the category and the rules in force, set by the UAE authorities. Some categories may qualify for 10 years; others for a shorter term. We review eligibility case by case and rely on the official texts in force, including the u.ae portal.

Can I bring my family?

In many cases, a residence or Golden Visa holder may sponsor a spouse and children, subject to the conditions set by the authorities. The documents and criteria vary. We will tell you what applies to your file.

How much do Visa Dubai’s services cost?

Official fees are set by the authorities and, where relevant, by the free zone. They vary according to the route you take. Our professional fees are given before you commit and remain separate from those charges. Message us on WhatsApp for a figure that matches your file.

Is Visa Dubai an official UAE government body?

No. Visa Dubai is an independent private service. We prepare and submit applications, including as a free zone partner, but this is not a government website. Visa approval is decided solely by the UAE authorities (including ICP and GDRFA).
