The Golden Visa through property: a practical guide

mx editorial · 8 April 2026 3,410 reads
The UAE Golden Visa grants 10-year renewable residency — and real estate is the most popular qualifying route. The threshold: AED 2,000,000 in property value. That can be one property or several, and mortgaged properties can qualify based on paid-up value (rules evolve — our advisors confirm the current position before you commit). The process: confirm eligibility, assemble title deeds and valuation certificates, lodge the application, complete medical and biometrics, receive your visa and Emirates ID. On mx, a specialist manages the file end to end — including the six-month multiple-entry permit while it processes. What people miss: the visa stays valid during extended stays abroad, sponsors family without an age cap on dependent children, and renews indefinitely while you hold qualifying assets.
