Dependant Visa
A UAE residency visa for a family member of a primary visa holder — spouse, children, parents in some cases.
In practice
Sponsored by an employed/investor primary visa holder meeting minimum salary criteria (typically AED 4,000-20,000 monthly depending on relationship). Children sponsored until age 18 (sons) or marriage (daughters). Parents require evidence of dependency. Issued for the same duration as the primary visa.
