Eligibility Snapshot

Palace Beach Residence Golden Visa Facts

Palace Beach Residence is a freehold Emaar address inside Emaar Beachfront at Dubai Harbour, holding approximately 550+ residences across two towers that carry 29 and 42 residential floors above a shared podium. The Dubai Land Department registered it as project number 2240 on 4 April 2021, construction started on 26 September 2021, and the project register records the build at 100% with a status of Finished, a reading current at 15 January 2025 against a registered completion date of 31 October 2025. The detail that matters for residency planning: the entry 1 bedroom apartment is priced from AED 2.35M ≈ USD 640K and the range runs to AED 27.50M ≈ USD 7.49M for a penthouse, so every priced tier clears the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum property investment applied under the UAE Golden Visa program on its own, subject to the regulations in force when you apply. Beachfront towers rarely open that far above the line. The handover status is Ready, so ownership registers as a title deed at transfer instead of waiting on a construction schedule.

Unit by Unit

Which Palace Beach Residence Apartments Meet the AED 2M Threshold

Most beachfront towers put their entry apartment below the Golden Visa line, which leaves one bedroom buyers combining two properties or trading up into a layout they never wanted. Palace Beach Residence does not: the smallest priced unit in the building, a 726 sq ft (67 sq m) 1 bedroom apartment from AED 2.35M ≈ USD 640K, already sits about 17% above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold before any floor level or view premium is added. With 08 units available in the current release, the residency decision and the livability decision point at the same shortlist. The brochure collection also lists 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses and the register description carries a townhouse level in the tower stack; neither is priced in the current release, so the table below covers the five tiers that are.

Unit TypeBuilt-Up AreaStarting PriceQualifies Alone
1 Bedroom Apartment726 sq ft (67 sq m)AED 2.35M ≈ USD 640KYes
2 Bedroom Apartment1,200 sq ft (111 sq m)AED 5.30M ≈ USD 1.44MYes
3 Bedroom Apartment1,918 sq ft (178 sq m)AED 7.20M ≈ USD 1.96MYes
4 Bedroom Apartment2,578 sq ft (239 sq m)AED 13.00M ≈ USD 3.54MYes
Penthouse6,163 sq ft (573 sq m)AED 27.50M ≈ USD 7.49MYes
All five priced tiers at Palace Beach Residence qualify individually. No combining of properties is needed.
!

Why this matters: eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value, so a 1 bedroom apartment contracted at AED 2.35M ≈ USD 640K carries the threshold on the deed itself. A resale unit in the same two towers priced below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K would not qualify on its own, so read the figure on your own contract rather than the tier it belongs to.

Payment Plan and Timing

When Palace Beach Residence Buyers Can Apply

Palace Beach Residence changes hands as a completed property. The Dubai Land Department register records project 2240 as Finished and the handover status is Ready, so there is no construction phase left to sit through before ownership is registered. The published payment structure is 10% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 60% across nine milestone instalments with the last of them tied to 100% construction completion, and 30% in six post-completion instalments of 5% payable every four months. Because the building is finished, those construction milestones have already fallen due, so what is genuinely open on any given unit is the post-completion tail rather than the whole schedule.

My read on the timing: the route you take depends on how you settle the balance, not on the building. A buyer who completes in full at transfer ends up with the simplest file the program accepts, a finished apartment registered outright in their own name, and can move on the application as soon as the deed is issued. A buyer who keeps the post-completion instalments running owns a registered apartment with part of the price still outstanding to the developer, and the paid value conditions commonly applied to part paid and mortgaged purchases decide when that file can go in. Those conditions are updated from time to time, so confirm the one in force before submitting rather than relying on what an earlier buyer in the same two towers experienced.

FAQs

Palace Beach Residence at Emaar Beachfront Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions

All five priced tiers. 1 bedroom apartments start at AED 2.35M ≈ USD 640K, 2 bedroom at AED 5.30M ≈ USD 1.44M, 3 bedroom at AED 7.20M ≈ USD 1.96M, 4 bedroom at AED 13.00M ≈ USD 3.54M, and penthouses at AED 27.50M ≈ USD 7.49M, so a single apartment clears the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum on its own with no combining of properties. Eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value, so the figure on your own contract is the one that counts. Full criteria sit in the Golden Visa requirements guide.

The property route looks at registered value and residential status rather than the label on the floor plan, so an apartment, a unit on the tower townhouse level, or a penthouse is treated the same way once it is registered in the buyer's name at the qualifying value. Palace Beach Residence is freehold and open to all nationalities, which is the ownership condition sitting behind property based eligibility. The conditions in force at the time of application always govern.

The Dubai Land Department register records project 2240 as Finished and units are sold ready, so there is no construction stage to wait out. The file rests on completed, registered ownership of a finished apartment rather than on construction stage paperwork, which is normally the shortest route a property buyer can take. Requirements in force at the time of application still govern the documents and the checks that follow.

Mortgaged and part paid purchases are commonly accepted provided the paid value condition applied at the time is met, and a lender is normally asked for a letter confirming the outstanding balance. The published plan at Palace Beach Residence leaves 30% payable in six instalments of 5% every four months after completion, so a buyer running that tail should confirm the current paid value condition before filing. These conditions are updated from time to time.

Joint ownership is commonly accepted where each applicant's own registered share meets the qualifying value, which means the share rather than the whole property carries the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K test. Spouses are treated more flexibly in practice under the conditions applied at the time of application. On a 2 bedroom apartment from AED 5.30M ≈ USD 1.44M, two equal registered shares each sit above the line.

A property based Golden Visa is normally extended to the holder's spouse and children, with each dependant file assessed against the sponsorship rules in force when it is submitted, and domestic staff sponsored under separate arrangements. Sponsorship is granted on the holder's status rather than on the size of the apartment, so a qualifying 1 bedroom unit and a qualifying penthouse carry the same family rights. The Golden Visa benefits guide sets out what the residency covers in full.

The property route currently carries a ten year renewable term. Renewal rests on the qualifying condition still being satisfied, which for a property investor means continuing to own a property at the qualifying registered value when the renewal is assessed. Selling a qualifying apartment without replacing it with another qualifying property removes the basis for the residency, so owners planning an exit usually line up the replacement first.

Once the title deed is registered, the usual sequence is the property eligibility check, medical screening and Emirates ID biometrics, then issuance, and complete files generally move in weeks rather than months. Because these apartments are already finished, the wait for a construction stage that sets the pace on an off-plan purchase does not apply here. Published processing times change from time to time, and the sequence is set out 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.
