Overview
What dependent visa sponsorship involves
Sponsoring a parent carries a higher income threshold than sponsoring a spouse or child, plus a mandatory health insurance requirement that must be in place before the visa is approved, not arranged afterward.
We confirm your eligibility against the actual threshold first, since this is where dependent-parent applications most often stall, then prepare the insurance and income evidence together.
- Eligibility check against the dependent-parent income threshold
- Mandatory health insurance arrangement
- Entry permit or status change application
- Medical fitness test and Emirates ID biometrics
- Visa stamping and Emirates ID card issuance
Benefits
Why this category needs extra preparation
Threshold confirmed upfront
We check your income against the actual dependent-parent requirement before you apply, not after rejection.
Insurance arranged in sequence
Mandatory health cover is arranged as part of the process, not left as an afterthought that delays approval.
Both parents can be sponsored
The process supports sponsoring one or both parents under the same application track.
No wasted submissions
Getting the threshold and insurance right the first time avoids a rejection and resubmission cycle.
Who this is for. UAE residents who meet the higher income threshold and want to sponsor one or both parents’ residency.
Requirements & Process

- Parent’s passport copy, valid at least six months
