In the midst of a real estate boom in their city, many Bengalureans are turning to Dubai for investment opportunities. Several real estate players are reporting a substantial increase in investments from Indians, particularly from Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, and Bengaluru, primarily fueled by the Golden Visa.
The Golden Visa is a residence visa valid for a long term, allowing foreigners to live, work, or study in the UAE and enjoy special perks. “Investors, entrepreneurs, scientists, outstanding students and graduates, humanitarian pioneers and frontline heroes are among those eligible for the Golden visa,” mentions the UAE’s official description. The benefits consist of a six-month entry visa with multiple entries for residence issuance, a long-term renewable residence visa for five or ten years, no requirement for a sponsor, and the option to stay outside the UAE for longer than six months to keep the residence visa valid.
From tier two cities
Cities such as Indore, Jaipur, and Chandigarh are included under tier two.
Abhishek Goswami, the Principal Partner and Sales Director for GCC Markets at Square Yards, addressed this trend. “For these investors, the combination of competitive pricing and stronger rental yields than in their local markets makes Dubai a compelling proposition to park their funds.”
“Dubai continues to attract global investors, driven by its tax-friendly environment and the Golden Visa scheme. With a property investment of AED 2 million, investors and their families can secure a 10-year residency that allows them to live, work, and study in the UAE independently of local sponsorship. The flexibility to stay abroad without losing residency further enhances its value. For Indians in particular, Dubai’s closeness, excellent connectivity, and convenience in managing investments have reinforced its appeal,” he stated.
