One of the most accessible pathways is through a qualifying bank deposit — simply place a fixed deposit of AED 2 million (approximately USD 545,000) with a UAE bank for a minimum of two years, and you become eligible to apply for the 10-year Golden Visa.

NO ONGOING OPERATIONAL COMMITMENTS.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to the most common questions about the UAE Golden Visa through the bank deposit pathway.

How much do I need to deposit?

The minimum qualifying amount is AED 2,000,000 (approximately USD 545,000), held as a fixed-term deposit for a minimum of 24 months.

Yes. The deposit earns interest at the rate offered by your chosen UAE bank during the fixed term. Interest rates vary by bank and tenure.

Withdrawing before the end of the fixed term may impact your visa status. We recommend maintaining the deposit for the full duration. After the term, you may renew the deposit or explore alternative qualifying investments.

Absolutely. Your spouse and unmarried children (sons up to 25, daughters regardless of age or marital status) can be sponsored under your Golden Visa.

The Golden Visa is renewable. As long as you continue to meet the qualifying criteria (e.g., maintain a qualifying deposit), you can renew for another 10-year term.

From the initial consultation to receiving your visa, the process typically takes 4–8 weeks, depending on document availability and government processing times.

No. Unlike some visa categories, the Golden Visa does not require continuous physical presence, though you’ll want to maintain your residency status.
