WhatsApp quoteUnlike a standard UAE residence visa, the Frontline Hero Golden Visa does not depend on an employer or a company sponsor, and it allows you to stay outside the UAE for extended periods without losing residency. The Frontline Hero Golden Visa is a 10-year renewable UAE residency visa for frontline workers, including medical staff, who made exceptional efforts during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. For most clients, payments between Denmark and the UAE are routine: the dirham is pegged to the dollar, Danish krone (DKK) transfers settle quickly and UAE banks are familiar with Danish business profiles. In practice, for Danish founders, the UAE is around 6.5 hours from Copenhagen, the UAE is 2 to 3 hours ahead of Denmark, and English is the working language.
