UAE Cabinet Approves New Long-Term Visa For International Investors

The UAE Cabinet, chaired by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has adopted a new system of entry visas for investors and professional talents providing them with a long-term visa for up to 10 years.

“The UAE will remain a global incubator for exceptional talents and a permanent destination for international investors. Our open environment, tolerant values, infrastructure and flexible legislation are the best plan to attract global investment and exceptional talents in the UAE,” said His Highness Sheikh Mohammed.

The new visa system will increase the chances of attracting investors and competencies to the UAE and thus increase the country’s economic competitiveness globally. The global investors’ ownership is expected to reach 100 per cent by the end of the year. The system will grant investors and talents up to 10-year residency visas for specialists in medical, scientific, research and technical fields, as well as for all scientists and innovators.
