About
A secure residency path for families building their future in the Emirates
The UAE Family Visa enables foreign residents to sponsor their spouse, children, and domestic staff—offering a stable, long-term solution for those looking to live together under one roof in the Emirates. Whether you’re an investor, business owner, or senior executive, this visa provides the legal foundation to relocate and settle your family in the UAE without disruption.
At Kingsbury & Partners, we work closely with a select group of regulated immigration, legal, and government services partners to assist our clients in obtaining UAE Family Visas efficiently and compliantly.
What the UAE Family Visa offers:
- Residency for your entire immediate family - sponsor your spouse, children under 25, and domestic staff (including drivers and nannies) under one structure.
- Extendable visa validity - available for 2 or 3 years depending on sponsor type, with seamless renewals for long-term residents.
- Pathway to schooling and healthcare - your dependants will be eligible for Emirates ID, healthcare access, and school enrolment—removing administrative friction for relocating families.
- No additional local sponsorship required - you act as the sponsor—giving you control, privacy, and autonomy.
Who qualifies:
The UAE Family Visa is designed for residents who meet the minimum financial thresholds and wish to bring their dependants under their sponsorship. Our partners can assist with both new applications and conversions from existing dependent or tourist visas.
