Eligibility Snapshot
Skyvue Stellar Golden Visa Facts
Skyvue Stellar is a 449-residence apartment tower by Sobha Realty in Sobha Hartland 2 and one of the towers of the Skyvue development. The Dubai Land Department does not register the Skyvue towers one by one: it lists them together under the single project name "Skyvue", project number 3435, a registration its inspection report describes as four buildings, so anyone checking the register searches for Skyvue rather than Skyvue Stellar. That registration was recorded on 25 February 2025, with construction started on 1 April 2025, and the register showed 10.54% progress at the inspection of 30 July 2026, with enabling and foundation works progressing and structure works under way. That reading covers the whole four-building registration; it is not a tower-by-tower figure for Skyvue Stellar. For residency planning the decisive detail is the price ladder: five of the six apartment types start above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property threshold of the UAE Golden Visa program, while the 1 Bedroom from AED 1.85M ≈ USD 504K starts below it, all subject to the rules in force on the day you apply. Handover is scheduled for Q1 2029, at which point the Oqood registration gives way to a title deed.

Unit by Unit
Which Skyvue Stellar Apartments Meet the AED 2M Threshold
At Skyvue Stellar the Golden Visa line separates the entry tier from every other type in the tower. The 1 Bedroom, from AED 1.85M ≈ USD 504K, falls AED 150K ≈ USD 41K short of the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum and cannot carry an application by itself. The other five types start above the line, but at very different distances from it: the 2 Bedroom, from AED 2.07M ≈ USD 564K, is the lowest qualifying entry and clears it by only AED 70K ≈ USD 19K, while the 3, 3.5 and 4 Bedroom types sit comfortably clear. For a buyer whose priority is residency, choosing the unit and securing the visa are one decision, and the margin above the line deserves as much scrutiny as the floor plan.
| Unit Type | Size Range | Starting Price | Qualifies Alone |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | 625 to 873 sq ft (58 to 81 sq m) | AED 1.85M ≈ USD 504K | No |
| 1.5 Bedroom Apartment | 876 to 877 sq ft (81 sq m) | AED 2.38M ≈ USD 648K | Yes |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | 901 to 1,676 sq ft (84 to 156 sq m) | AED 2.07M ≈ USD 564K | Yes |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | 1,683 sq ft (156 sq m) | AED 4.62M ≈ USD 1.26M | Yes |
| 3.5 Bedroom Apartment | 1,549 to 1,606 sq ft (144 to 149 sq m) | AED 4.24M ≈ USD 1.15M | Yes |
| 4 Bedroom Apartment | 3,110 to 3,111 sq ft (289 sq m) | AED 8.51M ≈ USD 2.32M | Yes |
| Five of the six types qualify individually at current starting prices. The 1 Bedroom does not qualify on its own, and the 2 Bedroom qualifies only while its registered value stays at or above the threshold. | |||
Why this matters: the authorities look at the registered purchase value of your own unit, never at the starting price of its type. A 2 Bedroom sits close enough to the line that any discount or price adjustment taking the contract below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K would remove its standalone eligibility, so confirm the final SPA value before you commit. The same test applies on resale: a secondary unit bought below the threshold would not qualify alone.
Payment Plan and Timing
When Off-Plan Buyers at Skyvue Stellar Can Apply
Skyvue Stellar sells on a 60/40 plan: 20% on booking (plus the 4% DLD registration fee), 40% during construction spread over four payments whose schedule is set in the SPA, and 40% on handover in Q1 2029. On the lowest qualifying unit, a 2 Bedroom from AED 2.07M ≈ USD 564K, that works out to AED 414,000 ≈ USD 113K at booking, AED 828,000 ≈ USD 225K across the construction payments and AED 828,000 ≈ USD 225K on handover. For an application before handover, the usual supporting documents are the Oqood registration that follows booking and evidence that the contract reaches the qualifying value and satisfies whichever paid-value conditions the Dubai Land Department and residency authorities apply when you file.
How I read the timing on this plan: the Skyvue registration is at an early stage of construction, so almost the entire construction period is still to come for a buyer entering today, and that leaves two realistic windows. Buyers who want residency soon after buying, for a family move or a UAE banking relationship, can look to apply on the Oqood-registered contract once the paid-value condition in force is satisfied; the booking payment covers 20% of the price, and it is the four construction payments that lift the paid share toward 60% before handover. Buyers with no urgency often prefer to wait for Q1 2029, when the title deed arrives and the file can point to finished, registered ownership. Off-plan conditions are revised from time to time, so check the current paid-value requirement before you submit.

Clearing the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K line is only one part of a sound residency purchase at Skyvue Stellar. The other two are knowing how far the build has progressed toward the title deed and knowing where your construction payments are held while the tower rises.

Skyvue Stellar Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions
Five of the six apartment types start above AED 2M ≈ USD 545K: the 1.5 Bedroom from AED 2.38M ≈ USD 648K, the 2 Bedroom from AED 2.07M ≈ USD 564K, the 3 Bedroom from AED 4.62M ≈ USD 1.26M, the 3.5 Bedroom from AED 4.24M ≈ USD 1.15M and the 4 Bedroom from AED 8.51M ≈ USD 2.32M. The 1 Bedroom, from AED 1.85M ≈ USD 504K, starts below the threshold and does not qualify on its own. Eligibility is assessed on the registered value of the specific unit, and the full criteria are set out in the Dubai Golden Visa requirements guide.
The 2 Bedroom is the lowest-priced qualifying type at Skyvue Stellar, starting from AED 2.07M ≈ USD 564K, which sits only narrowly above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold. A discount or a price revision can move the registered value under the line, and a 2 Bedroom registered under AED 2M ≈ USD 545K would fall outside the standalone property route. The figure that counts is the purchase price recorded in the SPA and in the DLD registration, so it should be confirmed for the exact unit before signing.
The plan is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 40% during construction spread over four payments whose schedule is set in the SPA, and 40% on handover in Q1 2029. The registration fee is paid on top of the price and is not part of the assessed purchase value. Because only the booking payment is made at the start, buyers aiming to apply before handover usually need some of the construction payments completed before the commonly applied paid-value conditions are met, and those conditions are updated from time to time.
Applying before handover is generally possible on an off-plan purchase: the file rests on the Oqood registration of the apartment, its registered value, and evidence that any paid-value condition applied on the filing date has been met. Buyers who would rather present completed ownership can wait for the title deed issued at the Q1 2029 handover. Both routes are compared in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.
Financed property has commonly been accepted for property-based Golden Visa applications, usually with a letter from the lending bank confirming the amount already paid, but the treatment of mortgaged and off-plan financed purchases is set by the rules in force at the time of application. For a qualifying Skyvue Stellar apartment bought with a mortgage, the current conditions should be checked with the issuing authority and the lender before the purchase is relied on for residency.
Joint purchases are commonly assessed on each owner's share of the registered value, so under the rules applied today each co-owner's share generally needs to reach AED 2M ≈ USD 545K on its own. On an equal two-way split at starting prices, the 3, 3.5 and 4 Bedroom types at Skyvue Stellar leave each owner above that figure, while the 1.5 and 2 Bedroom types do not. Ownership shares are fixed at registration, so the split should be checked against the current rule before the purchase is structured.
A property-based Golden Visa holder can generally sponsor a spouse and children, with age limits for children and the conditions for other dependants set by the rules in force at the time of application. The qualifying Skyvue Stellar purchase supports the main application, and dependants are added through the holder's file rather than through separate property. Family coverage is detailed in the Dubai Golden Visa benefits guide.
The property route currently grants a 10-year residency that is renewable while the holder keeps qualifying property and meets the conditions in force at renewal. Selling the Skyvue Stellar apartment, or reducing the holding below the qualifying value, can affect renewal, so the intended holding period matters as much as the purchase itself.
No. Buyers who purchase through this advisory receive the VIP application service free of charge, from preparing the documents to filing the application and following its status. The government fees set by the issuing authorities when the application is filed still apply and are paid by the applicant.
No. A qualifying purchase makes a buyer eligible to apply, while approval rests with the UAE residency authorities and depends on meeting every requirement applied on the filing date, with the registered ownership verified and the usual security checks completed. Build progress on the Skyvue registration is followed on the Skyvue Stellar construction updates page.
