Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa
Why the Entry Price Sits Below the Residency Threshold
The 3 bedroom townhouse at Camelia starts at AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K, and the property route to the UAE Golden Visa is assessed against AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. This page puts that arithmetic on the record, with the registry data behind it and what the completed project status does and does not change.

Eligibility Snapshot
Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Facts
Camelia is a freehold cluster of 515 townhouses marketed by DAMAC inside DAMAC Hills 2, registered with the Dubai Land Department as project 2548 on 16 February 2023 against the registered development entity FRONT LINE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT L.L.C, with construction started on 1 March 2023 and the registry status now reading Finished. The independent RERA progress monitoring report dated 30 October 2025 records current progress at 100%, against 94.48% at the previous inspection, and the Building Completion Certificate was issued by the Dubai Development Authority on 4 March 2025. The figure that settles residency here is the price rather than the programme. Camelia publishes one typology, a 3 bedroom townhouse from AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K, which lands AED 300K ≈ USD 82K under the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum property value applied to the UAE Golden Visa, so a Camelia townhouse bought at that entry price does not meet the minimum on its own, subject to the regulations in force at the time an application is made.

Unit by Unit
Which Camelia Townhouses Meet the AED 2M Threshold
Most projects in this price bracket let a buyer choose between the unit a family wants and the unit that reaches the residency minimum. Camelia offers no such choice, and that belongs at the top of the page rather than buried under a payment plan. One typology is published here, at one entry price, and that price sits under the line by a margin no payment structure can close.
| Unit Type | Built-Up Area | Starting Price | Qualifies Alone |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 Bedroom Townhouse | ≈ 1,924 - 2,010 sq ft (179 - 187 sq m) | AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K | No |
| No typology at Camelia reaches AED 2M ≈ USD 545K on its own at the AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K entry price. | |||
Why this matters: eligibility is assessed on the value registered with the Dubai Land Department for the property itself, not on a marketing figure or a later valuation, so a townhouse registered at AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K is read at that value. Resale units here are priced by individual owners rather than by the developer, and any unit registered below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K does not qualify on its own whoever sells it. If residency is the purpose of the purchase, that is the test to settle before a booking form, not after one.
Payment Plan and Timing
What Completion at Camelia Changes for an Application
DAMAC sold Camelia on a construction linked plan: a 20% deposit at booking with the 4% Dubai Land Department fee paid on top, 50% released in 5% steps against calendar dates and build milestones, and the final 30% on completion. That schedule now reads as history. The project is finished, the completion certificate is issued, and a purchase here registers as a completed transfer carrying a title deed rather than an Oqood entry that converts at a future handover.
My read on the timing: on most projects this is where a buyer weighs an early application on the Oqood contract against a simpler file after handover. At Camelia that comparison never starts. Both routes are tested against the same AED 2M ≈ USD 545K value, and a townhouse registered at AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K clears neither. Paid-value conditions, which are commonly applied to off-plan files and are updated from time to time, govern when an application can be submitted, never the minimum value it has to reach. The practical consequence is that a residency objective has to be settled at the property-selection stage here, against the regulations in force when you apply.

The Completed Townhouse Community Behind the Question
A residency decision and a home decision are not the same, and Camelia fails the first while still answering the second. The full project guide covers what the money buys: the TH12 layout, pricing, amenities, and the DAMAC Hills 2 community around it.

Project Insights for Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 Buyers
A residency threshold is not the only record worth checking on a completed project. The inspection history shows how Camelia reached 100% progress, the escrow account shows where buyer payments sat while it got there, and the snagging appointment is the last point at which defects are the developer's problem rather than yours.

Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions
Not on its own at the published entry price. Camelia has a single typology, the 3 bedroom townhouse, starting at AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K, while the property route to the 10-year UAE Golden Visa is assessed against a minimum property value of AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. A purchase registered at that entry price falls short of the minimum. The full criteria are set out in the Golden Visa requirements guide.
The property route is assessed against AED 2M ≈ USD 545K of registered property value, and the residency is issued for a renewable 10-year term. The conditions attached to it are set by the issuing authorities and are updated from time to time, so both the value test and the supporting requirements should be confirmed against the rules in force at the time of application. The sequence is set out in the Golden Visa application guide.
The published entry price is AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K against a threshold of AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, a shortfall of AED 300K ≈ USD 82K. Camelia townhouses run from approximately 1,924 to 2,010 sq ft (179 to 187 sq m) within that one typology, and the value registered on a specific unit is the figure any application is assessed against.
Property-based applications are assessed on the value registered with the Dubai Land Department for the property in question, which is why the contract figure carries more weight than any marketing estimate or later appraisal. On a completed home that value is recorded on the title deed at transfer. The requirements applied to the assessment are those in force at the time of application.
It changes the registration route, not the value test. The Dubai Land Department records project 2548 as Finished, the Building Completion Certificate was issued on 4 March 2025, and the RERA report of 30 October 2025 records 100% progress, so a buyer registers a title deed now rather than waiting for an Oqood entry to convert at handover. The threshold of AED 2M ≈ USD 545K still applies, and the AED 1.70M ≈ USD 463K entry price still sits below it. The inspection record is on the Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 construction updates page.
Yes. Camelia is freehold and open to buyers of every nationality, with ownership registered at the Dubai Land Department, which is the ownership status a property-based residency application requires. Buyer payments during construction ran through the project's DLD-registered escrow account at Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, detailed on the Camelia at DAMAC Hills 2 escrow account page.
No. For buyers who purchase a qualifying property 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. A qualifying purchase makes an applicant eligible to apply, and approval rests with the issuing authorities, which verify ownership, the registered value, and the standard background checks applied at the time. What the residency covers once granted, including family sponsorship and the renewable 10-year term, is set out in the Golden Visa benefits guide.
