Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum investment for an Investor Visa?

Investment thresholds vary by category (real estate, business equity, capital deposit) and are set by GDRFA. Thresholds have changed with recent Golden Visa reforms. Contact Amer MBS for current requirements.

How is the Investor Visa different from the Golden Visa?

The Investor Visa is a standard residence visa tied to a business or property investment. The Golden Visa offers 5–10 year residence with self-sponsorship and no entry-exit requirements. Eligibility paths differ: the Golden Visa covers talent, salary, and specialised skills beyond investment alone.

Can I sponsor my family on an Investor Visa?

Yes, Investor Visa holders can sponsor immediate family members (spouse and children) for UAE residence, subject to GDRFA eligibility requirements.

What types of investments qualify for an Investor Visa?

Qualifying investments include real estate purchases, equity stakes in UAE-registered companies, capital deposits in approved funds, and investment in Dubai-based projects. Amer MBS can advise on the best structure for your situation.
