What is the minimum property value for a Golden Visa in Dubai?
AED 2,000,000 in completed (ready) property fully paid. Alternatively, mortgaged property worth AED 2,000,000+ where you have paid at least AED 1,000,000 (approximately 50%+ equity). Joint ownership counts if your registered share meets the threshold. Off-plan property does not qualify until completed and title deed is issued.
Can foreigners buy property in Dubai?
Yes — since 2002, non-UAE nationals can purchase freehold property in designated areas. These cover most of modern Dubai including Downtown, Marina, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, Dubai Hills, JVC, and hundreds of other communities. Outside freehold zones, foreigners can only lease for 99 years. Freehold ownership includes the right to apply for a property investor visa.
