Purposes & requirements for UAE family visa
Here are the prerequisites for a UAE Family Visa at different instances.
If you wish to sponsor your spouse and children for a UAE visa, it is mandatory to prove that your monthly income is Dh 4,000 or more along with the cost of their accommodation covered.
The requirement in case you wish to bring your parents to UAE as a sponsor is different. In that case, your monthly income should be equal to or more than Dh 20,000.
This difference is because the immigration norms in UAE consider spouses and children as immediate family, and sponsoring beyond that can be an expensive matter.
If the application you are sponsoring for a UAE Resident Visa is currently residing outside UAE, then they are required to first apply for an entry resident visa. Later, when they arrive in the United Arab Emirates, they should apply for a residence stamp within 30 days.
