Securing a newborn resident visa in the UAE is an essential step for parents looking to ensure their child’s legal residency. The process requires specific documents, adherence to timelines, and a clear understanding of the regulations. Alif Global is here to handle the entire process for you—from document attestation, passport application to residency & Emirates id application—ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience.
Required Documents for the Newborn Residency Visa
To successfully apply for your newborn’s resident visa, the following documents are required:
1. Sponsor’s Documents
- Emirates ID – A valid Emirates ID of the sponsor (father or mother).
- Passport Copy – A clear copy of the sponsor’s passport.
- Residence Visa Copy – A valid UAE residence visa of the sponsor.
- Salary Certificate or Partnership Contract –
- Employees: Minimum salary of AED 4,000 or AED 3,000 + accommodation (as per labour contract).
- Investors/Partners: Valid partnership contract is required.
2. No Objection Certificate (NOC)
- If the mother is sponsoring the child, a NOC from the father is required.
- This NOC must be attested by Dubai Court. (Alif Global offers Dubai Court attestation services for NOCs.)
3. Baby’s Documents
- Passport Copy – First, you must apply for the baby’s passport. To do this:
- The English birth certificate issued in the UAE must be attested by MOFA.
- Note: Many parents mistakenly attest the Arabic birth certificate. However, MOFA attestation is required for the English version for passport issuance.
- Birth Certificate – A valid birth certificate attested by MOFA is mandatory.
- Passport-Size Photograph – Required for the visa application.
Important Timelines & Fines
- Visa Application Deadline: The newborn’s visa must be applied for within 120 days from the birth date. Failure to do so results in a fine of AED 50 per day.
- Additional Fines:
- If the visa application is submitted on time but the Emirates ID application is delayed, additional fines apply.
