In a bid to enhance its global competitiveness, the United Arab Emirates will grant long-term residency visas for up to 10 years to investors, professionals, scientists, innovators, exceptional students, and specialists in the medical, scientific, research, and technical fields, the cabinet announced May 20.

Students studying in the UAE will be eligible for five-year residency visas, the official WAM news agency reported, and the residency of dependant students currently in the UAE will be reviewed, enabling them to extend their residency after completing their studies to “give them the opportunity to study their practical options in the future.”

“The UAE will remain a global incubator for exceptional talents and a permanent destination for international investors,” Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE vice president and prime minister, said in comments reported by WAM. “Our open environment, tolerant values, infrastructure, and flexible legislation are the best plan to attract global investment and exceptional talents.”
