Tourist Visa
A UAE tourist visa is a short-stay entry permit for leisure travel, family visits, and personal trips that
don't involve employment. Depending on nationality, some travellers get a visa on arrival or visa-free entry, while others need to
apply in advance for a 30, 60, or 90-day visa, as a single-entry or multiple-entry option. With stay limits, extension rules, and
mandatory medical insurance requirements all varying by visa type, picking the right one before you book flights saves both money and
last-minute stress. Ampsy Consultancy matches your trip to the right visa category and manages the application.
- 30, 60 & 90-Day Visas: Single-entry options sized to your actual trip length, avoiding the cost of paying for days you
won't use.
- Multiple-Entry Visas: For travellers combining a UAE trip with regional stops, allowing repeated entries within the visa's
validity period.
- 5-Year Multiple-Entry Visa: A long-term option for frequent visitors, allowing unlimited entries over five years with each stay
capped at 90 days.
- Visa Extensions: Where extension is available, we handle the filing before your current visa expires so you're never caught in
an overstay situation.
- Family & Friend Sponsorship: For UAE residents wanting to host visiting family or friends, we manage the sponsorship application
on your behalf.
Business Visa
A UAE business visa lets you enter the country for meetings, conferences, and market exploration without
needing an employment or residence visa. It doesn't grant the right to work in the UAE, but it's the right entry point if
you're attending negotiations, scouting a market before committing to setup, or making repeated trips for client visits. Options
range from a single-entry visa for a one-off trip through to long-term multiple-entry visas for founders and executives who travel to
the UAE regularly. Ampsy Consultancy identifies the right category for your travel pattern and manages the full application.
- Single-Entry Business Visa: A straightforward option for a one-off trip to explore investment opportunities or attend a specific
meeting, typically valid for 60 or 90 days.
- Multiple-Entry Business Visa: Designed for professionals making repeated business trips, allowing unlimited exits and re-entries
within the visa's validity period, without the cost and hassle of applying every time.
- Long-Term Multiple-Entry Visa: A multi-year option for entrepreneurs and investors who need frequent, ongoing access to manage
business interests across the region.
- Business Exploration Visa: For founders assessing the UAE market before committing to a company setup, generally requiring proof of
financial capacity and relevant professional background.
- Sponsor Coordination: Where a category requires a UAE-based sponsor or host, we handle that coordination so your application
isn't held up on a technicality.
Employment Visa
A UAE employment visa is a residence permit that lets a foreign national live and work in the country under the
sponsorship of a licensed employer. It combines two federal workflows behind the scenes — a MOHRE work permit on the labour side and an
ICP or GDRFA residency visa on the immigration side — that feel like a single process from the outside but need to be filed correctly in
sequence. Ampsy Consultancy manages the full flow for employers and incoming staff, from the first work permit application through to
Emirates ID collection.
- MOHRE Work Permit: We file the labour approval that authorises the employer to sponsor the role, matched to the correct skill level.
- Entry Permit & Status Change: For candidates outside the UAE, we secure an entry permit; for those already here on another visa,
we manage the in-country status change.
- Medical Fitness & Emirates ID: We coordinate the mandatory medical fitness test and biometric appointment so results and the ID
application move without delay.
- Residency Stamping: The final step in the process, formally activating the employee's UAE residence on their passport.
- Family Sponsorship Follow-On: Once the employee's own visa is active and salary requirements are met, we handle sponsoring
their spouse and children as a next step.
Investor Visa
A UAE investor visa gives company owners and shareholders self-sponsored residency tied directly to their trade
licence, rather than to an employer. It's the standard residency route for anyone who owns or holds shares in a UAE mainland or
free zone company, typically valid for two or three years and renewable as long as your company remains active. It's a different
pathway from the 10-year Golden Visa, with lower investment thresholds and a faster, more straightforward process for most business
owners. Ampsy Consultancy manages your eligibility check and full application.
- Eligibility & Share Value Check: We confirm your shareholding and company structure meet the requirements for self-sponsored
residency under your specific licence type.
- Entry Permit & Status Change: We secure an entry permit if you're applying from abroad, or manage the in-country status
change if you're already in the UAE.
- Medical Fitness & Emirates ID: We coordinate your medical fitness test and biometric appointment so your ID application
isn't held up waiting on results.
- Residency Stamping: The final step activating your legal UAE residence on your passport, tied to your ownership in the company.
- Family Sponsorship & Renewal: Once your own visa is active, we help you sponsor your family and track your renewal date so your
residency stays continuous.
Freelance Visa
A freelance visa lets you legally live and work in the UAE as an independent professional, offering services
under your own name rather than a company or employer. In practice, it's a freelance permit issued by a free zone authority, paired
with a UAE residence visa and Emirates ID as effectively one setup process. It restricts you to a single declared professional activity
and doesn't allow you to hire full-time staff under your own permit, but it's the fastest legal route to independent UAE
residency for consultants, creatives, and other solo professionals. Ampsy Consultancy manages your permit, visa, and Emirates ID from a
single point of contact.
- Free Zone Selection: We match your professional activity to the right free zone cluster, since activities are grouped and restricted
by category.
- Freelance Permit: The core licence authorising you to work independently under your own name, valid for one to three years depending
on the plan chosen.
- Residence Visa & Emirates ID: We handle the entry permit, medical fitness test, and biometric appointment that turn your permit
into an active UAE residence.
- Family Sponsorship: Once your own residency is active and you meet the income threshold, we help you sponsor your spouse and
children on the same visa.
- Green Visa Route: For freelancers who prefer a five-year, self-sponsored option without an ongoing free zone tie, we assess whether
you meet the income and permit criteria to apply directly.
Family Residence Visa
A family residence visa lets UAE residents bring their spouse, children, and in some cases parents to live with
them legally in the country. It's available to employment, investor, Golden Visa, and Green Visa holders, provided they meet the
minimum income and housing requirements set by their emirate. Sponsoring family is often the real reason people push through their own
visa process in the first place, and getting the sequencing right — sorting your own status before starting family files — makes the
whole thing far smoother. Ampsy Consultancy manages both.
- Eligibility Check: We confirm your visa category and income meet the sponsorship threshold before you start gathering documents.
- Document Preparation: Attested marriage and birth certificates, salary certificates or bank statements, and an Ejari-registered
tenancy contract are compiled and checked.
- Entry Permit & Status Change: We secure entry permits for family joining from abroad, or manage in-country status changes for
those already in the UAE.
- Medical Fitness & Emirates ID: Medical testing and biometric appointments are coordinated for each family member, including
dependants exempt from certain steps by age.
- Renewal Management: We track each family member's renewal date so nobody's residency lapses when your own visa renews or
your circumstances change.
Maid / Domestic Worker Visa
A maid visa allows a UAE resident to legally sponsor a domestic worker — a maid, nanny, cook, or driver — under
UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 9 of 2022. Sponsorship must go through a licensed Tadbeer centre or a MOHRE-approved private route, and both
come with minimum income and accommodation requirements you'll need to meet. Employing someone on a tourist or visit visa, or
"borrowing" someone else's sponsored worker, is illegal and carries real fines. Ampsy Consultancy confirms your
eligibility and manages the sponsorship process correctly the first time.
- Eligibility Assessment: We confirm you meet the minimum income and accommodation conditions before you commit to a route or a
candidate.
- Tadbeer or Private Sponsorship: We help you weigh the fully-managed Tadbeer route against private sponsorship, based on your budget
and how much ongoing management you want.
- MOHRE Contract & Documentation: The mandatory Unified Standard Employment Contract, entry permit, and supporting documents are
prepared and filed correctly.
- Medical Test, Insurance & Emirates ID: We coordinate the worker's medical fitness test, mandatory health insurance, and
Emirates ID application.
- WPS Salary Setup & Renewals: We help you set up compliant salary payments through the Wages Protection System and track your
annual renewal date.
