Company, residency and cards for Russian citizens

Russian citizens can set up a company and obtain UAE residency on standard terms. Difficulties usually arise with banks and home-country tax duties, so we address them upfront.

Passport and visas

Russian citizens enter the UAE visa-free with a 90-day stamp on arrival. Residence visas go through a company, freelance permit or Golden Visa.

Banks: what they ask and where they refuse

UAE banks open accounts for Russian citizens but pay closer attention to source of funds and any sanctioned links. Clear activity, contracts and 6-12 months of statements help.

How to pay for our services
