Alana at The Valley Golden Visa

Yes. The 3 bedroom twin villa is listed at AED 4.50M ≈ USD 1.23M, the 4 bedroom at AED 4.45M ≈ USD 1.21M and the 5 bedroom at AED 5.50M ≈ USD 1.50M, so each tier clears the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold on its own, with no second property needed. Alana is freehold and open to all nationalities, and eligibility is still assessed on the contract value of the specific unit under the regulations in force at the time of application. Full criteria are set out in the Golden Visa requirements guide.

The registered purchase price. Eligibility is assessed on the value recorded with the Dubai Land Department for your unit, the Oqood during construction and the title deed after handover, not on a marketing figure. Listed prices at Alana begin at AED 4.45M ≈ USD 1.21M, a margin of AED 2.45M ≈ USD 667K over the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum, so the registered figure on a primary purchase would need to fall by more than half before the threshold came into question. A resale villa is judged on its own registered price, not on the original launch figure.

Off-plan applications are typically supported by the Oqood-registered contract, together with proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any paid-value conditions commonly applied at the time of application. Alana is a registered off-plan project, DLD project number 2803 with status Active, recorded at 81.56% on the Dubai Land Department project register on 15 July 2026. Buyers who prefer a simpler file can wait for the title deed at handover in Q2 2027. Both routes are explained in the off-plan Golden Visa guide.

The plan is 10% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 80% during construction and 10% upon handover. Because 90% of the price is paid before completion, most buyers reach the commonly applied paid-value conditions during the construction period, so an application before handover is usually possible once the current conditions are met. Instalments are paid into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with First Abu Dhabi Bank, described on the Alana at The Valley escrow account page.

Joint ownership is commonly accepted where each co-owner's registered share meets the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold, with separate treatment often applied to spouses. At Alana an equal two-way split of any listed tier, including the AED 4.45M ≈ USD 1.21M entry figure, leaves each share above that line. Mortgaged property is commonly considered where the lending bank provides the documentation required at the time of application. Because the conditions for financed and jointly held property are updated from time to time, confirm the current rules before structuring the purchase.

Under the program's current terms, a property-based Golden Visa holder can commonly sponsor a spouse and children, with each dependant assessed under the conditions in force at the time of application. Because every Alana tier clears the threshold alone, a family's sponsorship rests on a single villa rather than a combination of units. Dependant rules and what the visa covers are detailed in the Golden Visa benefits guide.

The program's current term is 10 years, renewable. Renewal is assessed under the regulations in force at that time and commonly depends on continued ownership of qualifying property, so an owner who sells an Alana villa should expect the residency basis to be reviewed. An owner who holds the villa through the term keeps the same qualifying asset for the renewal application.

The sequence commonly runs: purchase and DLD registration of the villa (Oqood during construction, title deed after the Q2 2027 handover), obtaining the ownership documentation that shows the registered value, submitting the application to the issuing authority, then the medical fitness test and biometrics before the visa and Emirates ID are issued. Processing times depend on the issuing authority at the time of application. Each step is covered in the Golden Visa application guide.

No. For buyers who purchase through this advisory, the VIP application service, covering document preparation, submission, and status follow-up, is included at no charge. Only the official government fees apply, as published by the issuing authorities at the time of application.

No. The purchase makes you eligible to apply, but approval depends on satisfying all requirements in force at the time of application, including ownership verification and standard background checks. The visa is a residency permit, not citizenship. Construction status toward the title deed is tracked on the Alana at The Valley construction updates page.
