Pakistani nationals employed in Dubai, one of the major UAE emirates, are permitted to sponsor their relatives to live with them as long as they fulfill certain standards, such as earning a minimum monthly salary. With the removal of the old limits that restricted sponsorship to specific work titles, the amended regulations have made it easier for expatriates to sponsor family members, allowing people from a variety of professions to do so.
Qualifications for Sponsoring a Family Visa to Dubai
It is now possible for any Pakistani national, regardless of employment status, to sponsor a resident visa for a family member if they have a valid UAE residence permit. The new regulations allow flexibility to anybody who meets the requirements, regardless of employment title, unlike the previous ones that only allowed specialized professions to apply.
Documents Needed to Sponsor a Family Visa for Dubai
You must provide the following paperwork in order to sponsor your wife and kids:
- A completed application for a visa (either through an official typewriter office or online)
- Copy of the children’s and wife’s passports
- Passport-sized pictures of the children and spouse
- Certifications of medical clearance for the spouse and any children who are older than eighteen
- A copy of the husband’s firm contract or employment agreement
- An employment wage document that details the husband’s monthly pay
- A certified copy of your marriage license
- A recorded lease that serves as documentation of the residence
It is noteworthy that in order to apply for a visa, male and female family members who are 18 years of age or older must take and pass medical fitness exams at authorized health institutions in the United Arab Emirates.
Required Minimum Salary to Sponsor a Dubai Family Visa
In order to sponsor a Dubai family visa, Pakistani nationals who do not receive housing through their employment must make a minimum monthly salary of AED 4,000. An employer-provided lodging and a salary of AED 3,000 also satisfy the criterion. By setting a financial criterion, sponsors can make sure their families are well taken care of while they reside in Dubai.
Pakistani workers in Dubai can bring their families to live with them provided they meet certain standards, which increases the emirate’s appeal to foreigners looking to settle down with their loved ones. Greater chances and flexibility are available to Pakistani nationals who wish to reside in Dubai with their families thanks to the modified wage criteria and streamlined process.
