Golden Visa de Emiratos Árabes Unidos por Compra de Vivienda, Desde Irán
For Iranian citizens, property worth AED 2 million brings a ten-year UAE golden visa. What is different from Iran: you need a visa arranged before travel, funds must come from documented money held outside Iran, and UAE banks apply stricter checks.
Actualizado 1 de octubre de 2026
Respuesta rápida
Iranian citizens can get a 10-year UAE golden visa by owning property worth at least AED 2 million. Iranians need a UAE visa arranged before travel. Because of sanctions, the purchase must be funded from documented accounts outside Iran, and UAE banks and developers apply enhanced due diligence, so allow extra time for onboarding.

Qué cambia desde Irán
Visa before travel
Iranian citizens need a visa arranged in advance for visits; once the golden visa is issued, it is your residence.
Banking
UAE banks apply enhanced checks to Iranian nationals and some will not open accounts; we prepare the source-of-funds file and work with developers who accept Iranian buyers.
Documents
Iran is not in the Apostille Convention; Iranian documents are certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and legalised by the UAE embassy, then translated into Arabic.

Property worth AED 2 million or more with a developer or seller who can complete with Iranian buyers.
Register and apply
Register the title and apply through ICP or GDRFA.
Medical and Emirates ID
Complete the medical test and biometrics in the UAE.
Open UAE banking
Open an account once resident; expect enhanced checks.
Documentos y legalización
Irán no es parte del Convenio de la Apostilla, así que los documentos públicos necesitan la cadena completa: certificación por la autoridad emisora y el ministerio de exteriores, y legalización por la embajada o consulado de Emiratos Árabes Unidos. Tradúcelos con traductor jurado cuando haga falta.
Normalmente necesitarás un certificado de antecedentes penales de Irán y de cualquier otro país en el que hayas vivido recientemente.
Dónde solicitar
Apply through ICP (or GDRFA in Dubai) once the qualifying asset is registered; medical test and Emirates ID in the UAE.
