What is "the best" visa option for someone aged 65+?
It seems as retirement age is 65 in UAE a visa for working for own company might not be granted per default, costs extra and for sure involves other hoops to jump thru.
Work visa age limit in Dubai: Labour law, retirement & more - MyBayut
"The labour cards of employees who are above 60 also need to be renewed annually. The work permit approval for seniors above 65 years costs AED 5,000 every two years."
Would the retirement visa be the best visa for someone like that given such a person has an retirement benefit income over the specified 20'000 AED / month?
The person would need to be able to open a personal bank account in UAE and get some money from the pension into it as well as some other income as that person still is active in business.
It is hard to find anyone having gone down that path so thanks for some inputs here.
