Freehold residency visa

Team,

A friend of mine was enquring about how the residency visa on freehold property is granted.

With a freehold property in your name, you are entitled for a residence visa. If any one has details or has gone through this procedure, please let me know.

Thanks

Roshan

Well - the procedure is very simple but it comes in two scenarios:

The first is when the developer provides the residence visa for yourself alone.
The second is when they allow you to sponsor your family as well.

For the first scenario, a number of developers will process your visa when they receive the initial downpayment along with relavent documents.

Lately some developers have begun to process the visa only after the final hand over of the property.
(After you have paid the complete amount and the building construction is done with.)

The second scenario is a lot more complicated as the developer has certain criterias for your eligibility and they vary with each developer.

I suggest the best thing to do would be to find a property that suits your needs and meet with the developer directly and they will provide you with relavent literature. Sometimes the executives will also be able to help you around corners by telling you what to disclose and what not to.

Roshan,

Here is the information I have received recently.

Quote:

The residency visa is arranged by the developer and is usually a 3-year renewable visa and does not include a work visa. It is only to allow the owner and his immediate family to live here without needing to renew transit visas.

Alex.

Hey,

I just Heard the proceduer for Residence Visas of nakheel ( I have a property in IC)

That You Fill Application Form, have a medical test from Nakheel`s approved lab , then pay 7000 AED ( 3 year fee) with you passport, and then wait for 2 weeks until your passport comes up with visa sticker.

Now In my case, i lives outside UAE. Now i have to stay in UAE for 2 weeks for my passport to return to me. For 2 Weeks nothing to do in Dubai and also paying heavy residing expenses plus the Dining etc, thts rediculuous, is there any way else so we not have to stay in dubai for 2 weeks, offcourse how u go out without your passport. Waiting for any useful info if you have
