Golden Visa family sponsorship

Golden Visa for Dependents

One of the biggest advantages of the Golden Visa is how easy it is to sponsor your family. DocTrust handles attestation, applications and medicals for every family member.

Quick answer

UAE Golden Visa holders can sponsor their spouse, children (sons and daughters regardless of age) and parents, and can also sponsor domestic workers. Dependents usually receive residency for the same duration as the main holder. If the main holder passes away, family members can stay in the UAE until their permits expire.

Preparing family documents

Marriage and birth certificates must normally be attested and, where needed, translated into Arabic. We can start attestation while your own Golden Visa is being processed, so your family's applications are ready to go.

We book your medical test and Emirates ID biometrics, and arrange health insurance where required.
