does the property ownership residence visa require a minimum price of the property or any‌ property will do? i have not found any information on this so it seems there‍ is no limit but i just want to be sure.
 
oh, great. thanks. so it is 5M AED / 1.15M EUR / 1.35M USD. that‌ is quite a lot for a limited-time visa.
i presently have no use for a‍ company and the overhead for accounting and of having to have empty office in order⁠ to get banking seems too much but compared to over 1M property, it's pennies.
 
This is really‍ sad. I would be curious to see what is the ending of similar cases. How⁠ many of them actually get time in prison?
 
Before looking for the tax benefits etc. look if you really want to live there‌ in means of your social life and lifestyle. Just looking at tax makes no sense‍ in my opinion as you are saving taxes to have a better lifestyle, right? Not⁠ just for having a cool "score" on your bank account. If you would just look⁤ on your tax bill you could go to Vanuatu and live with a tribe and⁣ eat people you killed with your self made spear...

I lived in Dubai for more⁢ than 6 months until I couldn't get a long with the fake people there anymore.︀ It's all a very fake lukewarm society which is very normal for a place where︁ money meets (I also don't like Miami for long term stays by the way). The︂ girls there just want your money and are aggressively hunting for it. The man there︃ just want to compare dicks by showing off who has the better car, the bigger︄ villa. You are just meassured by what you can show off. It's very nice if︅ you go there for a vacation but when you get integrated more and more you︆ will start to dislike it...very much. And Instagram made it even worse. I still visit︇ Dubai frequently and I have a nice time there when staying short term. And man...︈ the heat will piss you off soooo much, hahah.

I suggest you to live there︉ for 3 months and check if it is the right place for you. Some really︊ like it, some don't. But don't buy the pig in a poke and get too︋ big stars in your eyes while looking at the amazing pictures from Dubai as you︌ will get used to it very quick and then you will see what will remain︍ from the glamour. It's a very big difference between fully living somewhere and between just︎ visiting somewhere for a few weeks.

I am really️ curious to know in which country girls are not after your money. 90% girls are‌ after your money. Rest are already rich.
Dubai shows harsh truth of life and human‍ nature. If You are not useful, you are no longer required.
Do not see me⁠ as Dubai lawyer . I just mentioned my point.
Thanks
 
Yes I am 81 year old. You seems young. You‍ have still see so many things in your life. When you reach to my age⁠ you can relate with me. Women are good actress. Always remember , regardless of thier⁤ nationality. You can live with gold digger whole your life and you never realised that.⁣
Take my word my son earn as money as possible. Do not waste time this⁢ stupid things. Money solve your 99% of problems.
 
hey I am late to this thread, but I want to point out that the‌ "blog" I posted belongs to a lawyer who defends these cases, and every case that‍ she has posted there was a real case that was actually quite public and are⁠ verifiable.

For example, it is quite eye opening the fact that some guy who was⁤ diligent about respecting the local culture decided to abstain from smoking pot while he was⁣ visiting the country, but then he was asked to do a drug test and the⁢ officers detected traces of pot in his drug in his urine, and under their law︀ it was equivalent to "possession", bam years in prison.
Btw, cannabinoids stays veeeery long in︁ your system, and it gets stored in your fat and it can slowly release them︂ as you burn them. So lab tests could show positive even months after quitting!

Common sense my a*s, that is freaking ignorant and nonsensical.
How the hell is getting positive︃ in a drug test equivalent to possession of drugs? Are they thinking that they will︄ milk the guy to purify their urine and blood?
 
Only we hear on side story, how come police check only him, he is doing something︆ suspicious things than than police test him , so many people are coming to Dubai︇ why police test him only.

,"Villian plays victim card very well" ,

what if he︈ is drug lord, who knows???

If he is innocent , he will be pardoned. That︉ is sure.
Like i said so many time that people jump to conclusions quickly.

Thanks
 
As far as I was reading it, he was released in 3‍ days. And now is waiting for the verdict. Would be interested to see how these⁠ cases end.
 
He actually got ill⁠ and went to hospital, that's where his urine was tested. So good guys who are⁤ behaving well, could end up in the same spot, unfortunately.
 
Nobody interested in his 'release' news.
Just some small incident and⁠ people started bashing Dubai.
 
In fact, those who were quick to judge the "blog" (lol) you can check the‌ name of the lawyer who defended the guy with the cannabis in urine and check‍ the name of the owner of the blog I posted before in this thread.

That lawyer has been representing every single one of these cases, it is not a smearing⁠ campaign by anonymous blogger. She is the real deal, and it is a cautionary tale⁤ of what are the consequences if you are unlucky caught in the system, you are⁣ fucked.

It is like an never ending game of musical chairs, if you are denounced⁢ by a local you seem to be fucked regardless of your intentions or context. Once︀ the music stops, you are fucked.
 
Sorry if I understand︂ something wrong.
I am not targeting anyone. I am just making my point.

Thanks
 
why do they require 5M AED in order to get residency through investment into property?‌ I find that strange when there is the company route or the newly introduce remote‍ work visa that are so cheap. other countries have way lower limits as well so⁠ why is that?
 
It's 1m AED minimum, not 5m AED.⁤ Some people just don't want incorporate companies, they just want to buy property and move⁣ in.
Of course, company incorporation + visa is cheaper
Probably they want to boost real⁢ estate market, that's why the step is quite high
