UAE Launches Permanent Residency Visa

The emirate of Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced “Visa for Life” at an annual cost of AED16,500, according to the emirate’s free-zone authority (RAKEZ).

For the annual fee of AED16,500, the visa offers several benefits including a UAE residence visa, third-party visa processing, medical tests, an Emirates ID card, pre-approval for a business license, and use of a shared workstation.

The permanent residency visa is a perfect opportunity for those who are looking to relocate with their loved ones, allowing visa holders to easily sponsor their family members for relocation to join them in UAE.

It is important to note that the AED16,500 company set-up package includes all the fees without any additional costs.

Those who intend to avail the opportunity can submit their request directly through the RAKEZ website.

Despite announcing the cost and associated benefits of the visa, RAKEZ hasn’t specified how long the opportunity would be in effect.


  • What about the children’s or parents of family member?
    Is it 16500 UAE derham for one or all members?

  • Let the visitors know how much is the cancellation charges and incase if you don’t renew next year and doesn’t cancel how much is per day charges? 150 aed?

  • That’s good for those who’ve mid kind of funds and wanna move another country but overall it’s good opportunity.

  • I am planning to visit UAE for the first time ever, and have plans to explore business of my intrest there,can I avail this opportunity to later locate my family there in the same expense of 16500.

  • I cant beleive you made this paid post like a news. there is no permanent residence visa in uae. Good freezone will give you similar service for half the price.
    You should not have done some research before posting such misleading information. This is 2 year visa which they renew every 2 years same visa as another freezone offers you. 16500 lol I pay that much for 4 years with proper business license. 🤣

  • I am Ali from Pakistan. I will suggest you people to contact to Sir Ebaad Sahb. You can contact to Sir Ebaad Zulkaif for all kinds of information regarding job opportunities, residencies and tourism as well. Do not rely on anybody here on social media mostly the people are fake here. I had been cheated terribly by many people but Ebaad Sir guided me properly and even he helped me a lot after reaching here in UAE in searching job too. Finally, he adjusted me in a company as Admin Coordinator, Alhamdulillah. I am really owe to kind hearted and supportive person that is Sir Ebaad. May Almighty Allah bestows him good health and long life.
    I am sharing Sir Ebaad’s whatsapp and contact number with you: +923051554488. Remember me in your prayers.

  • Well this option is there for ages. Do pretand as new news. All you have to do is to establish a company in any freezone and obtain investor visa based on same company. You can also sponsor your family. As long as company is active, you can renew visa but you have to payment yearly license renewal cost. There is NO SUCH thing called PERMENANT VISA!!!

  • اس ویزہ کے حصول کے لیے پاکستان کے تمام حرام خور لائن میں لگ جائیں

  • If we have to pay 16,500 ANNUALLY/EVERY YEAR.. then HOW is it permanent visa..?? Normal visa from RAK costs 8000 AED.. which is for 2 years..
