Golden Visa Property Checker
Find out if your UAE property qualifies for the 10-year Golden Visa — and what you need to get there.
Properties must be freehold (UAE nationals) or in designated Investment Zones (expatriates). The following communities have confirmed eligibility:
This list is not exhaustive. Many other communities qualify — contact DRE to verify eligibility for a specific property.
Minimum AED 2 million freehold property value. The AED 2M can be spread across multiple properties. For mortgaged properties, the paid-up equity must equal AED 2M+.
Property must be fully registered with DLD (Dubai) or ADREC (Abu Dhabi) and a title deed issued in your name.
Application is submitted to the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security (ICP). Your real estate agent or a PRO service can assist.
Complete medical fitness test and apply for Emirates ID. This is required for all residents regardless of visa category.
10-year renewable Golden Visa issued. Covers you, spouse, and children under 18 (or unmarried daughters of any age). Parents can be sponsored separately.

If you sell and no longer hold a qualifying UAE property, your Golden Visa eligibility ends at renewal. You would need to purchase another qualifying property before renewal to continue.
