The Virtual Working Programme allows remote employees and freelancers to obtain a Digital Nomad Visa for living in the UAE for 1 year with the option to extend. The visa is intended for specialists working for foreign companies or running their own business outside the UAE. Main requirements for the Digital Nomad Visa — proof of employment or a remote work contract with a monthly income of at least USD 3,500, and a clean criminal record. The visa gives access to living in one of the most tax-friendly and innovative regions in the world, conveniently located between Europe, Asia, and Africa.
UAE residents do not pay personal income tax, which allows you to significantly increase your net profit from remote work.
The Digital Nomad Visa allows you to open corporate and personal bank accounts, and obtain debit and credit cards.
The UAE offers one of the best telecommunications networks in the world with internet speeds up to 1 Gbps, modern coworking spaces, and reliable power supply.
The visa grants unlimited border crossings, allowing you to travel freely without additional permits.
The main applicant can obtain Digital Nomad Visas for a spouse and children under 18, providing the whole family with legal status in the country.
Only a minimal set of documents is required, with no conditions regarding education or work experience, and the process takes 2–4 weeks via the online platform.
