Bring Your Family with Confidence
UAE residents can sponsor family members if they meet the income and housing requirements. Most residents need a monthly salary of at least AED 4,000, or AED 3,000 with accommodation provided; sponsoring parents has stricter requirements.
Family visas depend on getting the paperwork right: attested marriage and birth certificates, a registered tenancy contract and proof of income. We check your eligibility first, help you attest documents in time, and handle each application through medical and Emirates ID.
