Overview
Dubai is the UAE’s largest visa market, with a mainland licensing authority (DET) and more free zones than any other emirate. Every residence visa issued here runs through the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation for the labour stage, and through the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) for the residency stage.
PRO Deskk files the full sequence for each route: quota and work permit, entry permit and status change, medical fitness, Emirates ID and residency stamping. Applications are typed and proofread by our own specialists rather than passed to a typing centre, and every fee is passed through at government cost with our fee shown separately in writing.
Benefits
The same team handles your Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi filings, so a company operating across emirates has one point of contact rather than three.
Applications typed and proofread by our own specialists, with no dependency on a typing centre queue.
Medical and Emirates ID biometrics scheduled back to back, so the employee makes one trip rather than three.
Labour before immigration on every cancellation, and quota before permit on every new visa — the sequence that stops files being returned.
Every fee passed through at cost, with our fee shown separately in a written breakdown before you commit.
The same person handles quota, permit, medical, Emirates ID and stamping from start to finish.
Dubai mainland under DET, plus IFZA, Meydan, DMCC, DSO, DIFC, DAFZA, JAFZA, TECOM, DHCA and DWTC free zone filings.
How it works
We review the company file and the applicant’s position, confirm which route applies, and tell you what needs clearing before anything is filed.
Government fees at cost and our fee separately, sent before you commit to anything.
We tell you exactly which documents apply to your case and collect them from you — not a generic list you have to interpret.
Applications typed and proofread by our specialists, usually within 20 minutes, at government cost with no typing centre markup.
Submitted through the correct portal and tracked through review to approval, with WhatsApp updates at each stage.
Stamped passport, Emirates ID and copies of everything filed, plus a reminder before the next renewal falls due.
Before you apply
Whichever route you need, the same six conditions decide whether a file moves or stalls. Each is checked at the first call — because fixing any of them mid-application costs more than confirming them upfront.
Almost every Dubai visa is filed against an establishment record. Whichever route applies, the company side is checked before the applicant’s.
Employment, family and investor visas run on different rules, and picking the wrong one wastes the fee as well as the time.
Employment visas need quota; family visas need salary and accommodation; partner visas need shareholding. Each has its own gate.
Some things about the applicant must be right before a file is opened, and a few cannot be fixed once the application is in.
Certificates issued abroad need attestation in stages, two of them outside the UAE. It is the longest lead item in any file that requires it.
Every route has a clock. Knowing which one applies protects you from fines that nobody budgeted for.
Start the process
Gather these 24 items and we can open the file the same day. We confirm which route-specific items apply to your case before you start collecting. Tap any line to tick it off as you collect it.
FAQs
Employment visas, family visas and investor or partner visas — new applications, renewals and cancellations for each. We file across Dubai mainland under the Department of Economy and Tourism (DET), and across the IFZA, Meydan, DMCC, DSO, DIFC, DAFZA, JAFZA, TECOM, DHCA and DWTC free zones.
Work permit approval takes 3 to 5 working days depending on nationality. From there, entry permit, medical, Emirates ID and stamping usually add around a week, subject to appointment availability.
Begin at least 1 to 2 months before the current visa expires. If renewed before the expiry date the new visa starts from submission; if renewed after expiry it starts from the last expiry date, so you lose the days in between.
AED 4,000 per month with Ejari, or AED 3,000 per month where company accommodation is provided. Attested marriage and birth certificates are also required.
Yes. The Mission Visa is a 90-day single-entry permit for professionals working temporarily on a probationary basis, and the Virtual Work Residence Visa suits professionals employed by companies outside the UAE. Both are handled end to end.
Yes. The same team files in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi mainland, and across the free zones, so a company operating across emirates has one point of contact rather than three.
No. Applications are typed and proofread by our own in-house specialists, at the same cost as the government typing fee, with no typing centre markup added.
We send an itemised written breakdown showing every government fee at cost and our fee separately, before any payment is made. Fees vary by company category, route and whether a status change applies.
The employment visa must be cancelled — labour cancellation first, then immigration. Where the employee has already left the UAE, a travel report is required and the outside-country route applies.
