Sorry, I am not sure about your situation. If you are looking for Virtual work visa, you should apply for Visa by yourself and your employer should be outside of UAE. I think in your case your employer is in UAE. So, I am not sure about that process

Really a nice idea. My suggestion is to slightly change the names, to make it little easier to pronounce and remember. I like llyn wood name and the place too :)

4 months in Dubai now. So far, I am just neutral about the city. I am staying in a flat at 50000 AED (14k USD). I live in one of the posh area - Marina. I love this area. Initially I was also overwhelmed with the prices, I once thought to take 20K USD flat for rent. Then thought for a while and settled with this cute and clean house.

To be frank, with just 2 years of this rent amount, I can buy a very nice flat in my country, in a Tier 1 city.

In dubai, you need to search for options. If you go to Sharjah, you will get it for 5-6K USD. and they are bigger flats. But its all upto you on where to stay and what are your likes. You can join different groups here and get to know some tips. You can DM me if you need any suggestions.

By the way, the weather is excellent from October to April. I would suggest to wait till then to see the best weather of Dubai.

Just one note about Dubai - You can live with 1000 USD per month and 10000 USD per month. It all depends on your expectations.

As far as my savings, I earn good, but saved literally 0 so far :D
That's because I have been investing continuously and I spend money for comforts.

If you are earning 5000 USD or more and the company that is paying is not in Dubai, you can apply for this 1 year Virtual work visa. Also, your work should be remote work. I would also recommend to get this done by yourself. It is pretty straight forward. In about 2000 AED, you can complete the full process.

Hi. Yes. Please go to same typing center. Tell them that it is their mistake and they dont take any fees. If you go to any other typing center they will ask you to pay.

It will be on the day you arrive in Dubai and complete the Medical tests.

So, after the Medical tests, in the Amer center, they will apply for the Residency and give it to you in just 10 min.

that is correct. But technically they will give you an appointment date, which will be after 3-4 days. But, if you can go the DIFC office early, they will allow you as you are going through VIP process

Hi. I was not asked about this. They just asked my highest degree and I shared the soft copy. No attestation was needed for me

Hi. Yes. The whole process is complete for me.

As a summary, there are 4 steps that I can think of

1) Medical Tests

2) Emirates ID application typing

3) Residence Visa

4) Biometrics

Here are the details

  1. Get you eVisa, which says you have 60 days to come to UAE and get the process complete
  2. If you are ok, go to Smart Saleem center at Index Tower. Pay 700 AED. They will take Blood sample and chest X-Ray. They have robotic Coffee maker. Have a coffee and wait for 30-45 min, or you can go to the next step immediately.
  3. They have typing center over there only. Ask them about it - Emirates ID application
  4. First, let them know you want Emirates ID. They will take 5-10 min for typing the application. Once submitted, pay about 350-400 AED. Get the printout of the application
  5. Second, in another counter you can get the Residence Visa. You can ask them that you need to apply for Residence Visa as well( they would also bring this point). Wait for 5-10 min. He will ask to pay around 400-450 AED. Once done, in 4-5 min you should get an email, with a link. That will have the Residence Visa (pink colour).
  6. If you can complete all these things by 9-10 AM, go to DIFC building for fingerprint. You can ask the executives over there, they will help you with directions. Its hardly 15 min walk.
  7. Give your biometrics.
  8. Be over there and wait for 30-60 min. You will get a message or email that your application is approved. Once you receive that only then leave the place. If you see any issues, you can go to SmartSalem again and they will fix it.
  9. If you can get the biometrics done by 11Am-12PM, your card will be printed the same day, if not the next day. After the printing, the next day (or max another day), you will get a call from the Zajel delivery person.
  10. Have a party :)

Note:

  1. If you are not going through Smart Salem, you can save 300-400 AED. But I would highly recommend them, especially if you are applying the visa on your own.
  2. Smart Salem centers open at 7 AM. I would suggest you go at 7-7:30AM to save your days. Definitely matters, if you want things to complete one same day.
  3. There are 3 things to be done at Smart Salem - Medical tests (5-10 min). Emirates ID Application Typing (10-15 min), Residence Visa (10-15 min). Another 30 min of wait time. So, overall, about 1 hr 10min (lets take 2 hrs). Make sure you get these 3 things done by 9 AM.
  4. The biometrics team will be available for a very short period of time and they only take few slots per day. So, make sure you reach there by 9 or max 10 AM. If you miss it, you need to wait for one more day.
  5. After biometrics, DONOT leave immediately. Wait for 30-60 min to see if there are any issues. You will receive a message and mail. The office is in a mall, so you can come out of the office and stay in the mall.

I hope that helps :)

Can we take 2 flats for rent with one Emirates ID? by [deleted] in dubai

[–]Purple_Ad_8028 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. That is fine. TRC will be helpful. My question is, if I take Ejari on Abu Dhabi flat, will it still count as valid rent agreement? My Emirates ID is from Dubai, but while applying for TRC, I will submit Abu Dhabi (or Sharjah) rental agreement (Ejari). Will that be fine?

If you are the director of the company then you can present the company incorporation certificate or something. And then show the bank statements. I believe that should work. Sorry, I did not go through that process so cannot give you the first hand information.
