Published at: 27/01/2025 08:00 am
The United Arab Emirates launched a new residency option for content writers, podcasters, video producers and other "young" influencers.
The new initiative, Creators HQ of Dubai, attracts content creators with renewable residency permits to relocate and live in Dubai. "Content creator" means those individuals who create a video, audio or other artistic content for online audiences or social media platforms, according to the Business Standard.
The Emirates Towers Creator HQ is an incubation ground that can facilitate digital activities with access to resources and support. Since it opened its doors on 13 January 2025, more than one hundred creators from 20 countries have entered. The Creators HQ has partners such as Meta, TikTok, and X, among other vital players in the digital content markets.
Who can apply for the Content Creator Golden Visa in Dubai?
All applicants must be at least 25 years old and prove their track record in digital content creation. They must also show sufficient capital or resources. Another interesting requisite is the business plan, which must include the planned activities in the United Emirates. According to the rules of the Dubai Golden Visa program, successful applicants must pay an annual fee ranging from 250 to 5,500 euros, depending on their activity.
What are the main benefits of the UAE Golden Visa?
Of course, residents can live and work in the UAE, and after ten years, they can renew their resident status. Freedom of work is essential because Golden Visa holders don't need a work permit or employment contract. They can also register their businesses. There is no personal income tax in the Emirates. Health care, security, and the highest quality of life go without saying.
