Conditions, time and validity
- Sole owner: may apply regardless of the property value (DLD).
- Co-owner: the share must be worth at least AED 400,000.
- The applicant must attend in person; companions and representatives are not allowed.
- Start the renewal before the current visa expires; the property must still be registered in your name.
- Processing time
- DLD: 7-10 working days.
- Validity of the result
- 2 more years (sons over 18 and parents: 1 year).
- Where it is applied for
- DLD visa services at Al Manara Centre (Cube – Taskeen) and DLD-authorised real-estate registration agents; the applicant must attend in person.
Steps at the authority
- Client gathers the documents, including the Dubai good conduct certificate addressed to DLD.
- The applicant attends a DLD visa centre or authorised agent in person, submits the documents and pays the fees.
- Medical examination at the centre; Emirates ID and insurance are processed with the partners (ICP, DHA, insurers).
- The residence permit is sent by email (DLD: 7-10 working days).
Tips that save you a trip
- Book the renewal one to two months before expiry so you do not reach the grace period.
Common reasons for rejection or delay
- The property was sold or the share fell below AED 400,000.
- New good conduct certificate missing.
Questions and answers
Is the renewal cheaper than the first visa?
DLD publishes one fee table (AED 10,212.50 for the investor) and does not show a separate renewal price; our staff confirm the current amount before you pay.
