UAE Family Sponsorship

Family Visa Services

Bring your loved ones to the UAE. We provide hassle-free family sponsorship services for your spouse, children, newborn babies, and parents, ensuring full compliance with UAE immigration laws.

1. Sponsor Eligibility & File Opening

Your family sponsorship process starts with checking the sponsor's eligibility against UAE immigration criteria, including minimum salary requirements and Ejari registration. Once cleared, we open the sponsor file on the immigration portal (GDRFA/ICP) to prepare for the permits.

  • Sponsor salary status and profession review
  • Sponsor file registry opening on government portals
  • Verification of Ejari tenancy contract
  • Clearance of any pending portal restrictions

2. Entry Permit Issuance & Status Change

After opening the sponsor file, we apply for the entry permit for your dependents. If they are already in the country, we perform an inside-country status change to switch their current visa to the family residency permit without them needing to exit the UAE.

  • Dependents entry visa application typing
  • In-country status adjustment execution
  • Attested marriage and birth certificates check
  • Avoidance of overstay fines or exit requirements

3. Medical Fitness Screening & Insurance

Dependents aged 18 and above must complete a medical fitness test (blood test and chest X-ray) at an authorized government health center. Basic or premium health insurance is also mandatory to complete the visa registration process in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

  • Medical typing form preparation
  • VIP medical center screening scheduling
  • Mandatory health insurance setup
  • Instant medical clearance result tracking

4. Emirates ID Typing & Residency Stamping

The final step involves typing the Emirates ID application for each family member and scheduling biometric appointments (if required for new residents). Once completed, the residence visa is stamped digitally inside the immigration portal for 1, 2, or 3 years.

  • Emirates ID application portal typing
  • Biometrics scheduling and support
  • Residency visa stamping validation
  • Physical Emirates ID card dispatch and delivery
