In news– Recently, the United Arab Emirates  launched a Green Visa targeting highly skilled workers, students and graduates. 

About UAEs Green Visas-

  • Under the green visa, foreigners will be allowed to work in the UAE without being sponsored by an employer. 
  • This will be a marked change from the norm which requires a prospective worker to be sponsored via an employer, who, in turn, applies for a work permit from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation.
  • The Green Visa holders can sponsor their parents and children up to the age of 25 on their permits. 
  • The UAE government will allow people who lost their jobs to remain in the UAE for up to 6 months which is an incentive as most visas are tied to employment contacts. 
  • It has allowed hiring of temporary workers above the age of 15 in a bid to loosen the job market.
  • Foreigners in the oil-rich United Arab Emirates are generally only given limited visas tied to their employment, and long-term residency is difficult to obtain.
  • But those holding the new “green visa” will be able to work without company sponsorship.
  • The coronavirus pandemic has also impacted tourism and businesses in the UAE, whose economy was already slumping in recent years due to low oil prices.
  • The new category, referred to as “green visa”, comes as a part of a wider array of measures introduced by the Arab world to boost the economy and reduce reliance on oil.
  • In 2019, the UAE launched the 10-year “Golden visa” to attract wealthy individuals and highly skilled workers, the first such scheme in the Gulf.
  • Foreigners account for 90 percent of the 10 million population in the UAE, the Arab world’s second-largest economy after neighbouring Saudi Arabia.
  • Similar programmes have since been launched in other resource-rich Gulf countries, such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Federal freelancers visa

Another stream of visa that was announced was the federal freelancers visa for self-employed workers based in the UAE and overseas in specialised fields such as artificial intelligence, blockchain and digital currencies.
