UAE Sponsor Visa

The UAE Sponsor Visa is a visa issued to immediate relatives of a resident of the United Arab Emirates who wish to reside in the country for a long period of time. The visa is applied for through the GDRFA Dubai website or the Amer Immigration Center. The sponsor (resident visa holder) must apply for the dependent visa.

The relative visa is valid for the same period of time as the visa of its principal holder. It can be renewed within 30 days of the expiry date.

UAE Family Visa Requirements

You can only sponsor an unmarried daughter and a son under the age of 18;
For sons over the specified age, proof of enrollment in a higher education institution is required;
Unmarried children require the consent of their biological parents;
When sponsoring parents, the salary of the sponsor must be at least 20,000 AED; it is also necessary to rent accommodation that meets certain requirements;
At the time of visa application, a family member can be both inside and outside the UAE.
