Educators in Dubai will soon have the opportunity to apply for a Golden Visa, recognizing their significant contributions to the private education sector. Announced by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) on October 5, this long-term residency visa is a tribute to teachers who excel in nurturing young minds and enhancing the quality of education. The Crown Prince of Dubai highlighted this initiative on World Teachers’ Day, emphasizing the vital role educators play in shaping the future of the emirate. The Golden Visa will be available to outstanding educators from early childhood centers, private schools, and international higher education institutions, with eligibility based on their academic excellence, community feedback, and efforts in helping students achieve accredited qualifications. This initiative not only honors the dedication of educators but also aligns with Dubai’s Education Strategy E33, aiming to cultivate a bright future for the city’s youth.
Dubai’s new Golden Visa initiative for educators is designed to attract talented individuals to the emirate, fostering a bright future for the city’s education sector. This program encourages skilled educators to make significant contributions to the academic landscape, enhancing the quality of education for students. Schools are urged to ensure they meet the necessary requirements before submitting applications to the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) through the e-Services system. The Golden Visa Program in Dubai allows international individuals to secure residency through financial investment and compliance with specific criteria. Recent data from the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) indicates a remarkable 52% surge in the number of Golden Visas granted in the first half of last year, highlighting the growing interest among expatriates in this valuable residency opportunity.
