The new resolution adds a new paragraph to Article 33 of the executive regulations of the entry and residency law for entry and residency of foreigners.
It reads: ''Owners of built-in properties can stay for six months from the date of entry into the country. On the expiry of this period, the owner pledges to depart for his home country or any of the GCC countries. He will only be allowed to enter the country again after meeting the required conditions''.
Another new article, number 34, will be incorporated into the by-law stipulating that the owner should submit a multi-trip entry visa in regards to the property as per the following conditions. The property should be built-in and this case doesn't include owners of vacant lands. The owner should obtain a title of the property from the property registration authority in the emirate. The unit, be a house or an apartment, should be wholly owned by the concerned person.
The same article stipulates that the value of the unit should not be less than Dh 1 million. The unit should be fit for accommodation and for members of the family. The departments of naturalisation and residency will scrutinise this point.
The article allows the owner to include in the visa application his spouse and children and attaches an insurance cover (for him, his wife and children) valid for the limit of the stay in the country.
Article 34 stipulates that owner should have a fixed income of not less than Dh 10,000 or its equivalent in foreign currencies whether inside or outside the country though the visa doesn't give the owner of the property the right to work inside the country.
In case these terms are not met, the permit shall be null and void.
