Investor Golden Visa for Egyptians

10-year UAE residency · around 3.5 hours from Cairo

To be clear, if you qualify for the Investor Golden Visa, you can sponsor your spouse, children of any age and parents, and employ unlimited domestic workers. The Investor Golden Visa is a 10-year renewable UAE residency visa for investors who place AED 2 million or more in a UAE investment fund, a company or a deposit approved by the authorities. Egyptians are one of the largest Arab communities in the UAE, with several hundred thousand residents across all seven emirates, so the Investor Golden Visa authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Egyptian applications every day and process them without hesitation. The most common businesses Egyptians open through GoldenKey are in consulting, engineering, media and education, although Investor Golden Visa supports almost any activity.

Why Investor Golden Visa

In our experience, the Investor Golden Visa is released by the federal ICP or by GDRFA Dubai, and the supporting approval depends on your category. In short, golden Visa holders receive an Emirates ID valid for the full 10-year term, which simplifies banking, leases and school enrolment. For Egyptians, the practical advantages of Investor Golden Visa are the ease of travel between Egypt and the UAE, Arabic is shared, and most Egyptian professionals also work comfortably in English, and a banking system that processes Egyptian pound (EGP) transfers daily.
