When a person moves to the UAE for working or making business, issues on immigration of his family members arise as well.

If a person works in the UAE, he has a job resident visa; if he owns a company, he probably has an investor visa.

If his family members do not work or own a company, it is possible to issue visas for them under a special procedure. A person having visa can become a sponsor for his spouse or a child, which allows executing UAE resident visas for them.
