UAE Green Residence

Green Residence is a long-term residence route administered by the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs & Port Security (ICP). According to the ICP, it is a five-year renewable residence obtained through self-sponsorship, allowing eligible people — such as skilled employees, freelancers and investors — to live and work in the UAE without a national sponsor. Eligibility depends on meeting the official conditions, so confirm what applies to you with the official ICP guidance before you apply.
