Verve City Walk Golden Visa

All five tiers do. Starting prices are AED 2.12M ≈ USD 577K for 1 bedroom apartments, AED 2.90M ≈ USD 790K for 2 bedrooms, AED 5.50M ≈ USD 1.50M for 3 bedrooms, AED 12.10M ≈ USD 3.30M for 4 bedrooms and AED 29.52M ≈ USD 8.04M for the 5 bedroom penthouses, each above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum property value the UAE Golden Visa program currently uses, with eligibility judged under the rules in place on the application date. One apartment is enough on its own; no second property is needed. The full criteria are set out in the Dubai Golden Visa requirements guide.

In many cases, yes. Off-plan purchases are commonly accepted once the unit is registered on Oqood with the Dubai Land Department and the paid-share condition used by the authorities at that moment has been met; that condition is updated from time to time. Buyers who would rather apply on completed ownership can wait for the title deed at the estimated Q3 2028 handover. Both routes are compared in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.

The developer's launch schedule is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, six dated instalments during construction (10% in November 2024, 5% in March 2025, 10% in August 2025, 10% in January 2026, 10% in June 2026 and 10% in November 2026) and 25% on handover. On the launch dates the paid share builds to 75% before handover, but five of those dates have already passed, so the amount due at booking today and the remaining due dates are set by Meraas in the SPA. The registration fee is paid to the Dubai Land Department on top of the price and does not count toward the qualifying property value.

It can. Eligibility is assessed on the value registered for the unit, and the 1 bedroom starts at AED 2.12M ≈ USD 577K, only AED 120K ≈ USD 33K above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold. If a discount, an incentive taken off the price or a resale deal brings the registered value under AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, that apartment would fall short of the threshold by itself. The value shown on the Oqood, and later on the title deed, is the figure to check.

Mortgaged property is commonly accepted for property-based Golden Visa applications, typically with a letter from the lending bank, but the conditions on financed purchases, including how much of the value must already be paid, are set by the authorities and revised from time to time. Because Verve City Walk remains off-plan until the estimated Q3 2028 handover, the financing route a buyer chooses also shapes when an application becomes realistic.

Joint ownership is commonly assessed on each owner's share of the registered value. On a 2 bedroom bought at AED 2.90M ≈ USD 790K and split equally, each share would be AED 1.45M ≈ USD 395K, below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold for either owner alone, while a single owner of the whole apartment would clear it. Married couples who co-own may be treated differently under current practice, so confirm how the shares will be assessed before the purchase is registered.

The property-based Golden Visa commonly allows the holder to sponsor a spouse and children, and in some cases parents, under the sponsorship rules that apply when the file is lodged. Each family member needs a separate residence application with its own government fees. Who can be sponsored, and on what conditions, is covered in the Dubai Golden Visa benefits guide.

The program's current term is 10 years, renewable. Renewal is commonly tied to continued ownership of qualifying property, so keeping the apartment, or replacing it with property that still meets the value condition, matters for a second term. Selling a Verve City Walk apartment without a qualifying replacement would generally remove the basis for the visa.

The usual sequence is: sign the SPA and register the unit on Oqood with the Dubai Land Department, confirm that the registered value and the paid share meet the conditions then in force, submit the application with the property documents, complete the medical test and biometrics, and receive the residence visa and Emirates ID. Processing times vary with the issuing authority and with how complete the file is. Each stage is explained in the how to apply for a UAE Golden Visa guide.

It is a long-term residence permit, not citizenship or a passport. It does not lower the purchase price, alter the payment schedule agreed with Meraas or waive registration costs, and it has no effect on construction or on the estimated Q3 2028 handover, which is followed reading by reading on the Verve City Walk construction updates page.

No service fee applies for buyers who purchase through this advisory: preparing the documents, submitting the Golden Visa application and following it through to a decision are included free. Government fees apply and are paid at the official rates set by the issuing authorities when the application is made.

No. A qualifying purchase makes the buyer eligible to apply, while the decision rests with the issuing authorities and depends on meeting every condition that applies when the file is submitted, such as checks on ownership and standard security screening. Apartment types, prices and the payment schedule are detailed on the Verve City Walk project page.
