Selvara at Grand Polo Golden Visa

Eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value recorded at the Dubai Land Department, not on a market valuation and not on how much of the price has been paid so far. Selvara releases one typology, and 4 bedroom villas start at AED 6.20M ≈ USD 1.69M against a minimum of AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, so a single villa carries the whole requirement. Ownership is freehold and open to all nationalities, which is itself a condition of property based eligibility. The full criteria are set out in the Golden Visa requirements guide.

Off-plan applications are typically supported by Oqood registration together with proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any paid-value conditions applied at the time of application. Buyers who prefer the simplest possible file wait instead for the title deed issued at handover in Apr 2029, when the application rests on completed registered ownership. Both routes are set out step by step in the off-plan Golden Visa guide.

The launch schedule is an 80/20 structure: 10% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, a further 70% across seven instalments during construction, and 20% on completion. A buyer following that schedule passes the half-paid mark at the January 2027 instalment and reaches 80% of the price by June 2028, so the commonly applied paid-value conditions are usually satisfied well before completion. Four of the scheduled dates have already passed, so the instalment position of any villa still available depends on when it was released.

The property route currently carries a ten year residency term that is renewable rather than permanent. Renewal is assessed again at the end of the term against the conditions in force then, and it rests on still holding a qualifying property, so selling the villa without replacing it with another qualifying asset removes the basis for the residency. Term and renewal are covered in the Golden Visa benefits guide.

The property route ordinarily allows the holder to sponsor a spouse and children, and to sponsor domestic staff, with dependent permits issued to run alongside the main holder's own term rather than on separate clocks. The number of domestic workers permitted, the documents required for each dependent and the treatment of adult children are all set by the conditions in force at the time of application, so confirm the current position before preparing the file.

Eligibility is assessed on the value attributed to each owner on the registered ownership documents. On a villa registered at AED 6.20M ≈ USD 1.69M an equal two way split leaves each share at AED 3.10M ≈ USD 844K, above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum, so both owners would hold their own basis to apply. Where one share falls below the minimum, the usual route is for the qualifying owner to apply and sponsor the other as a dependent. Treatment of jointly held property is governed by the conditions in force when the application is made.

A mortgaged property is commonly accepted provided the registered purchase value meets the minimum and the lender conditions applied at the time are satisfied, which usually means a letter from the financing bank and, in some cases, a minimum amount already paid toward the price. At AED 6.20M ≈ USD 1.69M the registered value clears AED 2M ≈ USD 545K by a wide margin, so on a villa at this level the question is normally about documentation rather than value. Financing conditions are updated from time to time and should be checked before submission.

Under the conditions currently in force the property route residency is not cancelled by extended periods spent outside the country, which is the practical difference from older residence permits tied to continuous presence. What it grants is residency and the right to sponsor family, not citizenship, not a passport, and not an employment relationship by itself. Residency rules are updated from time to time, so the current position is worth confirming at application and again at renewal.

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.
