Routes
The right visa depends on what you already have and what you plan to do: invest in property, open a company or work from the UAE. We start with an eligibility check — before any purchase or payment.
01
On request
Long-term residency for investors in Dubai real estate from AED 2 million, with spouse and children as dependants.
For investors and families who want a dirham asset and a stable residency base, independent of an employer or company.
Core advantage
The visa follows the investment: while the property stays in your name on the required terms, residency is renewable.
02
On request
Categories for entrepreneurs, company investors and qualified professionals who meet the criteria set by the UAE authorities.
For partners in companies with significant UAE capital and highly qualified or high-earning professionals.
Core advantage
Long-term residency with no property purchase, tied to your profile or your company.
03
On request
A 5-year, self-sponsored visa for investors and partners with a shareholding from AED 1 million, among other categories.
For anyone building a UAE operation who has not yet reached the Golden Visa criteria.
Core advantage
Residency independent of an employer, for longer than a standard company visa.
04
On request
The fastest route to residency: open a UAE company and be sponsored by it, with Emirates ID and family included.
For founders and remote professionals who want to live in Dubai now while planning a larger investment.
Core advantage
Shorter timeline and lower cost, with the option to move to a Golden Visa once you qualify.
Costs vary by category, number of dependants and, for property, the value and how it is bought. You receive a fixed written proposal separating our fees from government charges.
Why us
There are hundreds of intermediaries selling Dubai licences. The difference shows after the sale — when the bank asks for a document nobody mentioned and you need someone to pick up.
You discuss shareholding, visa quota and bank requirements in Portuguese, with advisors who speak your Brazilian accountant’s vocabulary. Nothing gets lost in brokered technical English.
Before you sign for a property, we confirm the investment meets the visa criteria — value, ownership structure, financing and paperwork. That avoids the most expensive mistake: buying first and finding out later the property does not qualify.
No support queue, no different consultant with every message. You deal with the same person from the first consultation to the Emirates ID in your hand — and after that too.
An office and real relationships in the UAE, not a reseller working from abroad. That changes response times at notaries, banks and immigration — exactly where files tend to stall.
A written proposal setting out what is included, what is a government fee and what may vary. No surprise costs halfway through.
Emirates ID, personal bank account, schools, health insurance and renewals. We stay with the family after the visa, not just up to it.

FAQ
The questions that come up in almost every first conversation, answered plainly and with the rule in hand.
A long-term, renewable, self-sponsored residence visa — it does not depend on an employer. There are categories for property investors, company investors, entrepreneurs and qualified professionals, among others. The holder can sponsor spouse and children and receives an Emirates ID.
Criteria and durations for each category are set by the UAE authorities and can change; we confirm the current rule for your case.
The Golden Visa for real-estate investors starts from property worth AED 2 million. Rules on ownership structure, financing and property type affect eligibility — which is why the assessment comes before the purchase.
General information, not investment advice.
Yes. Spouse and children can be added as the holder’s dependants, each with their own visa and Emirates ID. Conditions for adult children and other relatives vary by category.
It depends on your goal and timing. A visa through your own company is the fastest way to live in Dubai now. The Green Visa serves investors and partners with a shareholding from AED 1 million. The Golden Visa offers the longest term for those who meet the investment or profile criteria. Many clients start with a company and move up later.
The usual route is a visa sponsored by your own company, typically valid for 2 years and renewable: once the entry permit is issued you complete the status change, medical test and biometrics, and receive the Emirates ID — the document that unlocks a personal bank account, a lease, health insurance and school enrolment. Spouse and children follow as dependants once your own visa is issued. There are also long-term routes: the 5-year Green visa for investors holding a share from AED 1 million, and the Golden visa of 5 or 10 years, which includes property investors from AED 2 million (5 years, renewable). How many visas your company can issue depends on the structure and the space it holds.
The company pays corporate tax at a headline 9% on taxable profit above AED 375,000 per year. Free zone companies meeting the Qualifying Free Zone Person conditions pay 0% on qualifying income — but note a detail few people explain: a QFZP does not get the AED 375,000 nil-rate band, and anything that is not qualifying income is taxed at 9% from the first dirham. There is also Small Business Relief for revenue up to AED 3 million, available for tax periods ending on or before 31 December 2026 and not available to a QFZP. VAT registration becomes mandatory above AED 375,000 of taxable turnover. Individuals pay no income tax on salaries in the UAE.

In most free zones, yes: incorporation is done remotely with digital documents and either remote signing or a power of attorney. Travel becomes necessary when you want the residency visa, because the medical test, biometrics and Emirates ID issuance are in person, and when your chosen bank requires an interview with the signatory. We sequence the process so all of it fits into a single trip to Dubai.
No. Normative Instruction RFB No. 2,265, published on 13 May 2025, removed the United Arab Emirates from Brazil’s list of jurisdictions with favoured taxation, under article 24-C of Law 9,430/1996 as introduced by Law 15,079/2024. In practice, consequences such as the increased 25% withholding tax on certain payments and the stricter thin-capitalisation and deductibility rules no longer apply. It does not remove Brazilian obligations: anyone remaining a Brazilian tax resident is still subject to Law 14,754/2023, which taxes profits of controlled foreign entities annually at 15% in defined cases — including significant passive income — alongside foreign asset reporting. And these lists are dynamic: they change, and a structure has to be reviewed when they do.
