Visa & Residency Services
Get UAE visa and residency support from the UK with clear guidance on the right route, eligibility, documentation, applications, Emirates ID, family sponsorship, and renewals.
Service Overview
Residency is what turns a UAE company or investment into a place you can actually live and operate from.
The UAE offers several routes, from investor and partner visas to employment visas, family sponsorship, and long-term options like the Golden Visa. Each carries its own eligibility, documents, and process.
But the right visa depends on your situation, not on a single default.
An investor route suits a business owner. An employment route suits a hire. A Golden Visa suits someone who meets its thresholds. Applying under the wrong route, or with the wrong documents, is what causes rejections and repeat medical and biometric trips.
At Gatestone Group, we help make the process clearer and easier to manage. From choosing the right route to preparing documents, handling attestation, and guiding you through medical and Emirates ID steps, our team supports you throughout the visa and residency process.

Our UAE Visa & Residency Process
We start by understanding your situation, whether you are an investor, an employee, a family member, or a long-term applicant, and what you need residency for. This helps us identify which visa route actually fits you.
We guide you on the requirement attached to your route, whether that is a trade licence, an employment contract, a sponsor relationship, or a Golden Visa threshold. The goal is to apply under the route you qualify for, not the one that seems fastest.
Our team helps you prepare and organise the documents required, including UK-issued documents that need attestation. This may include passport copies, photographs, trade licence, employment contract, marriage or birth certificates for family, salary evidence, and medical insurance.
Once the documents are ready, we submit through ICP or GDRFA, respond to queries, and follow up until the visa is issued. We then guide you through the medical fitness test, biometrics, Emirates ID issuance, and visa stamping, and file the same steps for dependants.
