Dubai Lifts Property Visa Investment Minimum to Boost Real Estate
Overview

Dubai has eliminated the minimum property investment requirement for its two-year property-linked resident visa. The Emirate scrapped the AED 750,000 threshold for individual buyers, now allowing entry with any property value. For jointly owned assets, the minimum stake per investor has been set at AED 400,000. This strategic move aims to revitalize the real estate market and attract a broader range of international investors.

Previously, a minimum investment of AED 750,000 (around ₹1.9 crore) was required for individual buyers seeking a two-year property visa. This threshold has now been removed entirely. For joint property ownership, the minimum investment required from each co-owner has been set at AED 400,000 (about ₹1.03 crore).

This move is expected to open the doors for a wider range of international investors, particularly those in the mid-market segment. Experts believe the elimination of the solo buyer threshold will attract more individual purchasers, while the new floor for joint ownership aims to facilitate broader investment while deterring schemes designed to exploit the visa system.

The goal is to revitalize Dubai's real estate market by stimulating transaction volumes and encouraging new buyers to invest. This strategy is seen as a significant step towards supporting the emirate's broader economic recovery.
