Golden visa via property: thresholds and nuances in 2026

In brief. Buying property from AED 2,000,000 qualifies you to apply for a 10-year investor golden visa for the owner and family. Both ready and off-plan property can qualify, subject to conditions. This is general guidance: final requirements are set by UAE authorities per case.

The AED 2M threshold is the main benchmark for the investor golden visa. It covers the owner, spouse and children, and runs for 10 years with renewal.

Both ready property and off-plan from approved developers can qualify — subject to current rules on amount and documents. Details are best checked before a deal.

We source a property that already fits the visa criteria and support the filing, so the purchase and residency run as one process.
