Investor visa cost in Dubai explained
Investor visa cost in Dubai combines trade licence setup, establishment card fees, immigration charges, medical testing, Emirates ID, and PRO service fees — varying significantly between mainland DET entities and free zone packages that bundle visa allocation.
Headline "visa included" packages often exclude medical insurance, Emirates ID renewal, dependant visa costs, and bank deposit requirements. A transparent cost model separates one-time setup charges from annual renewal obligations.
KPM Global Services provides itemised investor visa cost quotes covering government pass-through fees and service charges — so founders budget accurately for year one and understand ongoing renewal costs per visa cycle.
