The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has made its residency program more accessible to professionals across sectors. The Gulf nation has introduced a new type of Golden Visa based on nomination, albeit with some conditions, unlike the current practice of investing large amounts in either property or business in the country.

The move comes as good news for Indian nationals, who make up one of the largest expat communities in the UAE.

The expanded Golden Visa targets nurses, educators and content creators, broadening the pool beyond the original entrepreneur, investor, student and specialist segments drawn to the South Asian country by its tax advantages, world-class infrastructure, and stability.

What The Golden Visa Originally Offered

Launched in 2019, the program was originally tailored for high-net-worth individuals via real estate investment. In 2022, the minimum property threshold for a 10-year visa was dropped to AED 2 million, opening doors to a broader pool of investors. Immigrants could also get Dubai's Golden Visa by investing a large amount in a business in the country.
