WhatsApp quoteAs we tell every client, 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. Day to day, 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. Swedish companies use the UAE as a regional base for the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, which gives Swedish entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Investor Golden Visa licence is released. GoldenKey has Swedish clients from Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö, and our consultants understand the paperwork released in Sweden and how to attest them for the UAE.
Why Investor Golden Visa
To be clear, the Investor Golden Visa is released by the federal ICP or by GDRFA Dubai, and the supporting approval depends on your category. Importantly, processing of the Investor Golden Visa is typically 2 to 4 weeks once documents are approved, and GoldenKey tracks each approval stage for you. As we tell every client, many Swedish company owners run Investor Golden Visa companies alongside an existing business in Sweden, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.
