The type of residency visa you’re entitled to depend on the value of the purchased property. Once the property purchaser buys a property, he/she is automatically entitled to obtain a residence visa.

Applying for residency visa can be done:

• either on the website of Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship (ICA), which is the channel for citizenship and residency
• OR the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA), which works under the UAE ministry.
