Ever since the UAE government implemented the Golden Visa system in 2019, many Indians have received its benefits. In May this year, actor Sanjay Dutt shared the news that he has received the UAE’s Golden Visa.
The Golden Visa allows foreigners to live, work and study in the UAE for a long period without the need of a national sponsor and with 100 percent ownership of their businesses there. These visas are issued for five or 10 years and renewed automatically.
Usually, the 10-year Golden Visa is targeted at wealthy individuals keen to offer the UAE significant investment in exchange for an opportunity to reside within the country.
