Does buying commercial property qualify me for the Golden Visa?

Yes. A commercial property worth at least AED 2 million can qualify a foreign investor for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, based on the DLD title-deed value. Mortgaged and combined holdings count toward the threshold, and a February 2026 circular removed the earlier down-payment requirement. Some sources say eligibility applies only to select DLD-approved office or retail units - confirm before buying.
