Eligibility Snapshot

350 Riverside Crescent Golden Visa Facts

350 Riverside Crescent is a 742-residence apartment tower by Sobha Realty in Sobha Hartland 2, registered with the Dubai Land Department as project 3083 on 03 June 2024, with construction recorded as starting on 10 May 2024. The RERA progress report describes two basements, ground, four podium levels and 59 floors, and the Dubai Land Department project register shows 57.85% progress at the inspection dated 18 August 2026. For residency planning, the price ladder decides everything: the 1 bedroom from AED 1.09M ≈ USD 297K and the 1.5 bedroom from AED 1.66M ≈ USD 452K both sit under the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property value the Golden Visa program currently requires, while the 2 bedroom from AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K clears it as a single purchase, under the rules in force at the time of application. Handover is scheduled for Q4 2027, which is when the Oqood registration on an off-plan contract gives way to a title deed.

Unit by Unit

Which 350 Riverside Crescent Apartments Meet the AED 2M Threshold

Three layouts, one qualifying layout. At 350 Riverside Crescent the Golden Visa line falls between the 1.5 bedroom and the 2 bedroom, which turns the residency question into a layout question: a buyer who needs the visa from a single purchase here is choosing the 2 bedroom. The 1 bedroom and 1.5 bedroom stay relevant for owner-occupiers and landlords who are not relying on this purchase for residency, but neither reaches AED 2M ≈ USD 545K at its starting price. Layout detail and current pricing for all three are on the 350 Riverside Crescent project page.

Unit TypeSize RangeStarting PriceQualifies Alone
1 Bedroom Apartments527 to 731 sq ft (49 to 68 sq m)AED 1.09M ≈ USD 297KNo
1.5 Bedroom Apartments705 to 1,181 sq ft (65 to 110 sq m)AED 1.66M ≈ USD 452KNo
2 Bedroom Apartments1,005 to 1,337 sq ft (93 to 124 sq m)AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694KYes
Only the 2 Bedroom qualifies on its own at current starting prices. The 1 Bedroom and 1.5 Bedroom sit below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K.

Why the contract value matters: eligibility is assessed on the purchase value registered on your Oqood, and later on your title deed, not on the layout name. At its AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K starting price the 2 bedroom sits AED 550,000 ≈ USD 150K above the line, so a unit bought from Sobha Realty at that price clears it with room to spare. A 2 bedroom bought on the resale market is judged on its own registered price, so check the contract figure on the specific unit before relying on it.

Payment Plan and Timing

When 350 Riverside Crescent Buyers Can Apply Off-Plan

350 Riverside Crescent is sold on Sobha Realty's 80/20 plan: 20% on booking (plus the 4% DLD registration fee), 60% during construction and 20% on completion. On a 2 bedroom at AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K, that works out to AED 510,000 ≈ USD 139K at booking, with a registration fee of AED 102,000 ≈ USD 28K paid to the Dubai Land Department on top, then AED 1,530,000 ≈ USD 417K across construction and AED 510,000 ≈ USD 139K on completion. The fee sits outside the purchase price and never adds to the qualifying value. Sobha Realty registers the contract as Oqood after booking, and an off-plan application is typically built on that Oqood record plus evidence that the contract value reaches the threshold and that the paid-value conditions set by the Dubai Land Department and the residency authorities on the day you file are satisfied.

How I read the timing on this plan: whether the 20% booking payment is enough on its own depends on the paid-value condition in force when you apply, and in practice the early window widens as the construction 60% is paid. With 57.85% of construction recorded, how much of the construction 60% is already due at today's stage is set in each SPA, so ask Sobha for the schedule on your unit before you pencil in an application date. Buyers who want residency early, for a family move or a UAE bank account, can apply on the Oqood once the applicable conditions are met during construction. Buyers with no deadline often wait for completion in Q4 2027, when the final 20% is paid, the title deed is issued and the file rests on finished, registered ownership. Off-plan paid-value requirements are updated from time to time, so confirm the current condition before you submit.

Golden Visa Buyer Resources for 350 Riverside Crescent

A Golden Visa plan at 350 Riverside Crescent depends on two other records as much as on the price: the construction progress that leads to the title deed, and the escrow account that holds your payments until then. Each has its own page, and this one completes the set of three.

FAQs

350 Riverside Crescent Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions

Only the 2 bedroom apartments. They start at AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K, above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property value the program currently requires, so a 2 bedroom bought at or above that starting price can support an application on its own. The 1 bedroom from AED 1.09M ≈ USD 297K and the 1.5 bedroom from AED 1.66M ≈ USD 452K are below the threshold and do not qualify on their own. The full criteria are set out in the Dubai Golden Visa requirements guide.

Off-plan applications are typically supported by the Oqood registration of the purchase, together with proof that the contract value meets the threshold and that any paid-value condition in force at the time of application has been met. A 2 bedroom buyer at 350 Riverside Crescent can therefore apply during construction once those conditions are satisfied, or wait for completion in Q4 2027 and apply on the title deed. The off-plan route is covered step by step in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.

The plan is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 60% during construction and 20% on completion. The fee is paid to the Dubai Land Department and is not part of the qualifying purchase value. Because 80% of the price is paid before completion, a 2 bedroom buyer is likely to meet the commonly applied paid-value conditions during construction rather than at handover, depending on the condition in force when applying. With construction recorded at 57.85% on 18 August 2026, how much of the 60% is already due on a new purchase is set in each SPA.

Under rules commonly applied in Dubai, a property bought with bank finance can support a Golden Visa application, typically with a letter from the lending bank confirming the amount paid, and the conditions on the paid amount and the lender are set by the authorities at the time of application. The payment plan for 350 Riverside Crescent says nothing about financing, so any mortgage is arranged separately with a UAE bank, and only the 2 bedroom apartments, from AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K, reach the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold in the first place.

Jointly owned property is commonly assessed on each owner's share of the registered value, and any different treatment for spouses or family co-ownership is set by the authorities at the time of application. On a 2 bedroom at its AED 2.55M ≈ USD 694K starting price, an equal split gives each owner about AED 1.28M ≈ USD 347K, below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold, so co-ownership should be checked against the current rules before the contract names more than one buyer.

The UAE Golden Visa program currently allows holders to sponsor family members, commonly a spouse and children, subject to the conditions in force at the time of application. At 350 Riverside Crescent the starting point is a 2 bedroom bought at or above AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, since the 1 bedroom and 1.5 bedroom do not reach the threshold. What family sponsorship covers is explained in the Dubai Golden Visa benefits guide.

The program's current term is 10 years, renewable. Renewal is commonly linked to still holding qualifying property, so selling the 2 bedroom at 350 Riverside Crescent, or replacing it with a property below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, would affect eligibility under the rules in force when renewal falls due. How an application is filed, step by step, is set out in the UAE Golden Visa application guide.

No. A 2 bedroom bought at or above AED 2M ≈ USD 545K makes the buyer eligible to apply, but the decision rests with the UAE authorities and depends on meeting every requirement that applies when the file is submitted, with the registered ownership verified and the applicant cleared through the authorities' own checks. Progress toward completion and the title deed is followed on the 350 Riverside Crescent construction updates page.

No service fee is charged to buyers who purchase through Tohid Fetrat: preparing the application documents, filing the submission and following its status are included as a free VIP service. The visa itself is not free: government fees apply, charged at whatever rates the issuing authorities set when the application is filed.

A resale purchase is assessed on its own registered price, not on the developer's starting price. A 2 bedroom bought on the secondary market at or above AED 2M ≈ USD 545K can support an application under the conditions in force at the time, while one bought below that figure would not qualify on its own. The 1 bedroom and 1.5 bedroom, from AED 1.09M ≈ USD 297K and AED 1.66M ≈ USD 452K, do not reach the threshold at current prices, which are listed on the 350 Riverside Crescent project page.
