Cuba at DAMAC Islands 2 Golden Visa

All three. The 4 bedroom townhouse starts at AED 2.75M ≈ USD 749K, the 5 bedroom townhouse at AED 3.66M ≈ USD 996K and the 5 bedroom twin villa at AED 5.0M ≈ USD 1.36M, so no tier at Cuba sits below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum and no combining of properties is needed. Confirm the contract value on your specific unit, since a secondary market resale priced below the threshold would not qualify alone. The full criteria are set out in the Dubai Golden Visa requirements guide.

Off-plan applications are typically supported by Oqood registration plus proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any paid-value conditions applied at the time of application. Those conditions are updated from time to time, so the position on the day of submission is what counts, not the position at booking. Buyers who prefer the simplest file wait for the title deed at the Q2 2030 handover. The sequence is explained in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.

The plan is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, 55% across 47 dated instalments during construction, and 25% on completion. Because most of those instalments are one percent, paid value rises gradually rather than in large construction-linked blocks, so the paid share at any given month is easy to calculate but slow to build. That makes the commonly applied off-plan paid-value conditions the practical gate on an early application at this project.

Yes. Cuba is freehold and open to all nationalities, with ownership registered at the Dubai Land Department under project number 4292 in Al Yelayiss 1, which is the registration basis property-linked Golden Visa eligibility rests on. Buyer instalments are held in a DLD-registered escrow account at Mashreq Bank PSC, set out on the Cuba at DAMAC Islands 2 escrow account page.

Oqood is the interim off-plan registration recorded against the unit at the Dubai Land Department once the sale is entered, and it is the document that evidences ownership while the project is still under construction. The title deed replaces it at handover, expected in Q2 2030. An off-plan file is built on the Oqood record and the qualifying value; a post-handover file is built on the title deed, which is why applications after completion are usually the shorter route.

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. A qualifying purchase makes an applicant eligible to apply; approval depends on satisfying every requirement in force at the time of application, including ownership verification, medical and Emirates ID steps, and standard background checks. Construction status against the register can be checked at any time on the Cuba at DAMAC Islands 2 construction updates page.

The property investor route currently carries a 10-year renewable residency term. Family sponsorship is generally available for a spouse and children, and the scope of dependants and support staff follows the rules in force when the application is filed. What the visa does and does not cover is broken down in the Dubai Golden Visa benefits guide.
