Frequently asked questions
Do Russian citizens need to keep living in the UAE to hold the Golden Visa?
No — the Golden Visa's defining feature is that it survives long absences, unlike standard residencies that lapse after six months outside. You keep the status while the qualifying basis (property, investment) holds. For Russian founders, the free 15-minute consultation turns this into a written, case-specific answer.
How long does the Golden Visa take for Russian citizens?
Two to six weeks on the property route once evidence is complete; the schedule-setter is legalising documents issued in Russia through the embassy chain. We start that on day one and run the UAE side in parallel. As it applies to Russian founders, a senior advisor will put the precise figures on paper within one working day.
