Your Essential Relocation Checklist

Let's cover the key administrative steps to get you officially settled in.

Visas & Residency

Securing your residency visa is the first step. This is typically sponsored by your employer. Other options like the Golden Visa are also available for investors and specialised talents.

Emirates ID

Your Emirates ID is your primary identification document in the UAE. You'll need it for everything from opening a bank account to signing a rental contract and setting up utilities.

Bank Account

Opening a local bank account is essential for receiving your salary and managing day-to-day finances. You will need your passport, visa, and Emirates ID to open an account.
