Freezone (IFZA, Dubai) residency renewal

[Gree1984]

Hello all,
If anyone has experience, can you advise about the process for residence permit renewal in Dubai for the FZCO owner and GM? So far I deducted the following.
1. Get medical blood test.
2. Submit application for residency renewal via the Amer center or online.
3. Apply for visa renewal via IFZA online ( 72 or 24 hours for 1500 AED)
4. Wait for the card delivery.
Has anyone been going through this ? Is it a correct process?Any other documents needed? Is it possible to finish it in 5 working days?
Appreciate your help.

Right now it is not possible in 5 days. Immigration is really slow at the moment. Not even with double VIP (VISA and Emirates ID) But it is the right flow, that you mentioned

Thank you. Can you advise on realistic timeline? Does it make sense to leave and return only when the card is passed to the courier company?

When you have done your emirates typing, and got your resident VISA you can leave and then let the currier or someone else, send your emirates id to your home country address

Sorry for the additional questions, really appreciate you sharing the knowledge. Do I need visa to be stamped in the passport? I understand that courier company is not really much choice, is it really possible to redirect the delivery with them?

No, VISA is only online now. So no need for that. You can find your VISA, emirates ID and other things in UAEpass or UAEicp, in here you have all documents
