The UAE continues to innovate its immigration system with forward-looking visa reforms, and the Green Visa is a shining example. Introduced to attract global talent and reduce dependency on employers, the Green Visa enables skilled professionals, freelancers, and investors to live and work in the UAE without needing a sponsor.
The Green Visa is a 5-year self-sponsored residency option that allows qualified individuals to stay and work in the UAE independently. Unlike the standard employment visa, this visa gives more control to professionals and greater flexibility for career transitions.
