3 RESIDENCY BY INVESTMENT 01

4 Dubai RESIDENCY BY INVESTMENT The United Arab Emirates is a very attractive country from several points of view and many foreign citizens come to work or open businesses here. Among the advantages foreign citizens can benefit from are a flexible taxation system and high living standards. Before coming to the UAE foreigners are required to obtain a residence permit. It is rather simple to obtain a residence or a work permit in Dubai and in the other Emirates, provided that all the required steps are followed and all documentation is prepared accordingly. A 3 year investor visa can be acquired by starting your own UAE company, investing into an existing one or purchase a property. The Residency by Investment Program Dubai has been developed by the government as another mechanism for promoting economic growth. Most countries offer these programs in order to attract much-needed foreign direct investment so they can then use these funds to invest in their own economic or cultural projects. If you meet the governement s eligibility criteria, you may be able to get residency through the UAE investor visa program. There are currently two ways of achieving residency in Dubai as an investor: real estate investment and buiness investment.

It is a tax haven for offshore investors, and popular amongst celebrities and high net worth individuals for its privacy and high standard of living. The UAE was named the 13th Most Promising Home Economy for Investment in Why Dubai? Dubai is one of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates. It is rather like an independent city-state and is the most modern and progressive emirate in the UAE, developing at an unbelievable pace in the tourist and trade sectors especially. Dubai was gaining popularity in recent years until the global economic crash of Dubai is essentially a desert city with superb infrastructure, liberal policies (by regional standards), that became popular for its excellent tourist amenities. Just 5 h from Europe and 3 h from most parts of the Middle East, the Near East, and the subcontinent of India, Dubai makes a great short break for shopping, partying, sunbathing, fine dining, sporting events, and even a few sinful pleasures. It is a city of superlatives: for the fastest, biggest, tallest, largest and highest, Dubai is the destination.
