In a significant move to attract global talent and investors, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has rolled out a new Golden Visa scheme offering lifetime residency. The visa is priced at AED 1 million (approximately ₹23 lakh) and is designed to provide long-term stability to professionals, investors, entrepreneurs, and their families.
India, with its strong economic and cultural ties to the UAE, is expected to be one of the primary beneficiaries of this initiative. The new visa will enable eligible Indians to secure permanent residency without the need for local sponsors, thereby enhancing career opportunities, business prospects, and family security.
The lifetime residency visa extends beyond traditional 10-year golden visas and allows the holder to live, work, and study in the UAE indefinitely. In addition to investors, the program also targets highly skilled professionals across fields such as technology, science, education, and medicine.
The initiative is part of the UAE's broader strategy to diversify its economy, attract foreign talent, and strengthen its position as a global innovation hub. Experts suggest this will significantly benefit Indian entrepreneurs and professionals who view the UAE as a gateway to global markets.
