German citizens living in the United States can apply for the UAE's Virtual Work Residence Visa — a 1-year residence for remote workers — online through GDRFA Dubai (or ICP), showing remote-work proof and US$3,500/month income.
One-year UAE residence for remote workers employed by, or running a business registered, outside the UAE.
- 有效期
- 1-year UAE residence, renewable by re-application
- 入境次数

何时开始办理
建议在出行前 7 天 至 21 天 开始办理。
Assemble a colour photo, a passport copy valid 6+ months, evidence of remote work for a company outside the UAE, proof of US$3,500/month income (e.g. 6 months of bank statements), and valid health insurance.
Apply online through the GDRFA Dubai smart-services system (log in with UAE Pass or username) or at an Amer service centre, and pay the service fee.
GDRFA reviews the application; the expected completion time is around 48 hours when all documents are in order.

在美国的申请方式
按辖区申请Apply online through GDRFA Dubai's smart services (or ICP for other emirates) — the virtual-work residence is issued without a UAE employer, so there is no in-person visa centre in the United States.
预约名额——请尽早预约 · 用户反馈整理，核实于 2026-06-13
- 名额分批放出，没有固定的公开时间——通常在当地清晨、周一上午以及每月 1 号前后。
- 热门领事馆（如法国、意大利、西班牙的大城市）一批名额可能在几分钟内被抢光——请提前注册并登录后再查看。
- 全天都可能因取消而释放名额，因此即使显示“无可预约”也请每天查看。
- 因此请尽早申请——最早可在出行前六个月。拖到出行前 1–2 个月往往已无名额。
温馨提示
- Your work and income must come from OUTSIDE the UAE — the visa does not permit working for a UAE employer.
- You must hold valid UAE health insurance for the residence to be issued.
- The residence is for 1 year and is renewed by re-applying and re-proving eligibility.
