Partner Haider Hussain discusses eligibility and process surrounding the UAE's golden visa, a long-term residence visa enabling foreign talent to live, work or study in the UAE, in this recent article published by The National.
He notes that recognising students for academic excellence encourages them continue to live and work in the Emirates.
“The UAE can keep talent within the country. It’s extremely positive as these talented students will go into the workforce and contribute to the economy and development. It ensures these individuals are comfortable and think of the UAE as their home,” says Haider.
