Unlike a standard residence 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 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. GoldenKey has Slovak customers from Bratislava and Košice, and our consultants understand the papers issued in Slovakia and how to attest them for the UAE. Slovak automotive and engineering suppliers serve the UAE through Dubai distributors, which gives Slovak entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Investor Golden Visa licence is issued.
Why Investor Golden Visa

On the ground, processing of the Investor Golden Visa is usually 2 to 4 weeks once paperwork are approved, and GoldenKey tracks each approval stage for you. For Slovaks, the practical advantages of Investor Golden Visa are the ease of travel between Slovakia and the UAE, English is the business language, and a banking system that processes euro (EUR) transfers daily.
