The Golden Visa is a 10-year UAE residency without an employer or sponsor: you sponsor yourself, add your family, and the visa does not lapse if you stay abroad. WHATox handles the process end-to-end — eligibility check first, so you never pay government fees for a doomed application.
Routes and budgets
Property from AED 2M — ready or off-plan, mortgage allowed subject to conditions. Government fees and medical ≈ AED 10,000–14,000 per applicant; legal check of the purchase from AED 5,000; full support from AED 12,000.
