UAE residents, including Pakistanis, can sponsor their families to reside in Dubai and other regions of the United Arab Emirates if they fulfill the host country’s criteria.
Both employers and employees with valid UAE residence visas are eligible to sponsor residence visas for their families.
Unlike in the past, sponsorship is now open to all, regardless of job title, rather than being limited to certain professions.
