Visa ServicesUAE visa services, from application to Emirates ID
A UAE visa involves several authorities and a fixed order of steps: entry permit, change of status, medical test, biometrics, Emirates ID and residence. One late or incorrect document can hold up everything behind it.
Legacy Global Advisory prepares and submits each application, books the appointments and keeps you informed at every stage. We act for individuals, families and employers, on the mainland and in the free zones.
Visas we handle
The right visa depends on why you are in the UAE and who is sponsoring you. These are the ones we are asked for most often.
- Employment visa
For staff hired by a UAE company. We manage the work permit, entry permit, medical fitness test, Emirates ID and residence visa as a single file, so a new hire can start work without delay.
- Investor and partner visa
For shareholders of a mainland or free zone company. We confirm eligibility against your licence and share capital, then take the application through to issue.
- Family residence visa
Sponsor your spouse, children or parents. We check the salary and accommodation requirements first, and arrange attestation of marriage and birth certificates where it is needed.
- Golden Visa
Long-term residence for investors, entrepreneurs and specialised professionals. We start with an honest eligibility review before any fee is paid.
- Visit and multiple-entry visa
Short-stay and multiple-entry permits for business visitors and relatives, including urgent applications where the authority offers an express service.
- Domestic worker visa
Sponsorship of household staff, including the contract, medical test and insurance that the authorities require.
- Renewal, stamping and cancellation
We track expiry dates and renew in good time. When someone leaves, we cancel the visa and work permit correctly so no fines accrue.
