FamilyVisa.ae, a UAE visa services provider, marked its third anniversary by launching a dedicated Golden Visa portal on 22 September. The new platform consolidates current Golden Visa information and features an interactive calculator designed to help applicants estimate the total cost before they apply, including provisions for family and dependent visas.
The launch addresses a common challenge for Golden Visa applicants: the complexity and variability of rules, procedures, and fees across different categories and emirates. The UAE's long-term residency programme is open to diverse groups such as property owners, investors, entrepreneurs, and specialised professionals, each with unique eligibility criteria, required documents, and processing steps. Beyond that, Golden Visa rules and procedures are subject to frequent changes, leading to outdated information readily available online.
Key Features of the Portal
The portal is designed to overcome the issue of outdated information by providing continuously updated details on rules, regulations, fee adjustments, and procedural changes as they are announced. Users can explore specific categories, verify eligibility conditions, understand required documentation, and learn about the application process relevant to different emirates.
Interactive Golden Visa Calculator
A central feature of the platform is its interactive calculator. By inputting a few key details, users can:
- Identify the most suitable Golden Visa route for their circumstances.
- Receive an up-to-date cost estimate for their application.
- Calculate the cost for family members, including spouses and children, and see how each additional dependent impacts the total expenditure.
According to Razeeb Abdulla, CEO of FamilyVisa.ae, the portal aims to ensure applicants have accurate and current information from the outset, simplifying the preparation process for their Golden Visa application.
