WhatsApp quotePut simply, unlike a standard 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. GoldenKey processes the Frontline Hero Golden Visa from eligibility check to passport stamping, including the approval letters that most applicants find hardest to obtain. In practice, for Icelandic company owners, the UAE is around 9 to 10 hours with one stop from Reykjavík, the UAE is 4 hours ahead of Iceland, and English is used for all UAE business. Icelandic seafood and clean-energy know-how reach the Gulf through Dubai, which gives Icelandic entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Frontline Hero Golden Visa licence is issued.
