Alvis, who has been a resident of the UAE since 2010 comments; “It’s an honour to be presented with a golden visa in a city that is forever filled with innovation and boundary-breaking pioneers. I arrived in Dubai more than a decade ago with only my chef whites and knives - I never dreamed I would call this place my home, let alone be rewarded for my work. I will always be committed to pushing the regions F&B scene as well as nurturing and developing young talent who aspire to work in hospitality”.
In 2019, the UAE implemented a new system for long-term residence visas. The new system enables foreigners to live, work and study in the UAE without the need of a national sponsor and with 100 per cent ownership of their business on the UAE’s mainland. These visas will be issued for 5 or 10 years and will be renewed automatically.
