One of the methods of obtaining UAE residence that has been talked about and advertised a lot recently is obtaining UAE residence by buying a property.

The city of Dubai is one of the most popular cities in the UAE to buy property, many Iranians buy houses in Dubai in order to invest and obtain residence.

Many ads for buying real estate in Dubai claim that permanent residency in Dubai is possible by buying real estate, and some exaggerate and claim that it is possible to get an Emirates passport by buying real estate.

But we must clearly say that staying in the UAE by buying a property is a 6-month or two-year stay, and you must extend it after the end of your stay.

Also, obtaining residence in the UAE by buying a house does not allow you and your dependents to work in this country, and to work in the UAE and Dubai, you must obtain the necessary permits.

Investing in Dubai real estate, if done with a correct economic insight, can result in great profits for the investor, and in the absence of sufficient insight, it will involve significant losses for you.

To obtain UAE residency, the price of the property purchased in Dubai must be at least 1 million dirhams (about ten billion tomans). Keep in mind that the criterion for the price of the house is the price mentioned in the property document and not the current value of the house.

For example, if the price of a house in Sindh is 900,000 dirhams, but the current value of the house in the market is 1 million dirhams, you cannot obtain UAE residency.

If several people are partners in the house document, each person’s share must be at least one million dirhams in order to obtain UAE residency.

In most cases, the property you buy in Dubai has very high costs such as building maintenance charges or the cost of using air conditioning, and the owner must pay these costs monthly or annually.

Company registration in the UAE and Dubai is considered the best way to obtain UAE residency.

All company registration procedures in Dubai usually take 7 to 15 days and can be done without having an Emirati partner.

Before this, to register a company in Dubai, it was necessary to have an Emirati partner, and it was not possible to register a company without having an Emirati partner, and 51% of your company’s shares must be in the name of an Emirati partner; But currently there is no such law and applicants can register a company in Dubai without having an Emirati partner.

It should be noted that there is no limit for the type of registered company in the UAE and different companies can be registered according to the investor’s request.

There are no restrictions on the location of the company and applicants can register the company in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain.

But due to Dubai’s strategic position in global trade, company registration in Dubai is more popular than other cities in the UAE.

The tax rate for foreign companies operating in the UAE is zero percent. For this reason, the UAE is one of the world’s business destinations.

Many people take advantage of the good tax and business conditions in the UAE to register a company in this country and in this way increase the scope of their business at the international level.

Registering a company in the UAE and Dubai allows you to exchange goods and services with other countries and make international payments without the slightest problem.

If foreigners register a company in Dubai, they can get a 2-year residency in Dubai for themselves and their families.

Dubai residence can be extended after two years through company registration.

It should be noted that Dubai residence with company registration is suitable only for investors who intend to internationalize their business and use Dubai’s ideal position in global trade.

It is not possible to obtain a UAE passport through company registration and the UAE government has very strict policies for granting passports to foreign citizens. Therefore, we recommend to people who are planning to get a passport and permanent residence of another country through investment, to try investing in Turkey or obtaining a golden European visa.

Due to the high value of the UAE currency, many Iranians are willing to go to work in the UAE and obtain UAE residency through work.

Job applicants in this country can apply for a work residence in this country according to their background and work conditions, educational qualification, physical condition, marital status, age, and level of familiarity with Arabic and English.

To work in the UAE, you need an employer, which is called a sponsor in the UAE. In the UAE, the sponsor is responsible for obtaining UAE residency through work, and all procedures for obtaining residency must be done through the sponsor.

The sponsor must give guarantees to the UAE government to employ foreign employees and workers. Therefore, in exchange for these guarantees, the guarantor usually keeps the passports of employees and foreign workers as collateral.

It is worth mentioning that it is very difficult for Iranians to obtain a work permit.

In recent years, we have seen news that the UAE grants residency to doctors and specialists. This news caused the doctors to contact immigration institutions to obtain UAE residency, but this news was not complete.

Residence in the UAE for specialists and doctors is only for those doctors who have studied medicine in UAE universities and graduated from there, or have successfully passed the standards and exams related to the UAE Health Department.

Therefore, staying in the UAE and Dubai for doctors is not common for everyone and is only for a certain number of doctors who graduated from UAE universities.

With an educational stay in the UAE, you will not be allowed to work in this country, but you can work in the UAE in the form of internship programs.

It is not possible to obtain a permanent residence in the UAE after studying in this country.

Therefore, we recommend to those who intend to immigrate to study in the United States or to study in Canadian universities for this purpose, because after graduating from Canadian and American universities, it is possible to obtain permanent residence in these countries. has it.

Marrying an Emirati citizen is another way through which you can apply for UAE residency.

This method is one-way, that is, if a foreign woman marries an Emirati man, she can obtain the residency of this country, and by marrying an Emirati woman, she cannot obtain the residency of this country. Keep in mind that the UAE government has strict rules for residence in the UAE through marriage, and in order to obtain residence in the UAE through marriage, you must be able to prove that your marriage is genuine.

Note that you should not do this in any way through a fake marriage, because if this is found out at any stage, your stay will be canceled and you will be punished.
