To obtain a resident visa in the UAE via registration of a company, such company should possess the resident status and be recognized as such by the immigration department of the UAE.
Under the category of such companies fall the legal entities, registered on the main territory of the UAE as well as onshore legal entities, registered in Free Trade Zones of the UAE.
Since the activities of the RAK ICC offshore companies are carried out solely outside the territory of the United Arab Emirates, consequently such companies do not possess the status of country’s resident companies. For this reason getting a resident visa via registration of an offshore RAK company is not possible.
If you need to obtain a resident visa in the UAE – it can be easily executed via an onshore company in the UAE.
The costs of such a company are higher compared to offshore RAK ICC. Such company can be registered in RAK Free Trade Zone or any other FTZ in the UAE, which best fits your specific requirements. Such company would also be in your 100% ownership and enjoys tax free environment whereby you and your family can have UAE resident visa over it.
