WhatsApp quoteImportantly, unlike a standard residency visa, the Investor 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 Investor Golden Visa is a 10-year renewable UAE residence visa for investors who place AED 2 million or more in a UAE investment fund, a company or a deposit approved by the authorities. The most common businesses Indonesians open through GoldenKey are in halal food, furniture, hospitality and palm oil, although Investor Golden Visa supports almost any activity. Put simply, for Indonesian founders, the UAE is around 8.5 hours from Jakarta, 3 hours ahead of the UAE, and English is the working language.
Why Investor Golden Visa
Golden Visa holders receive an Emirates ID valid for the full 10-year term, which simplifies banking, leases and school enrolment. Processing of the Investor Golden Visa is in most cases 2 to 4 weeks once documents are approved, and GoldenKey tracks each approval stage for you. Indonesian applicants benefit from the fact that Investor Golden Visa already has many Indonesian shareholders on its register, so its officers recognise Indonesia documents and name formats instantly.
