UAE: Dubai Introduces Visa for Gifted and Creative Persons

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, granted a long-term cultural visa for craftsmen, artists, and manufacturers in Al Quoz in 2019.  The same has been introduced now with directives to the effect. The announcement was made in order to empower and encourage them to settle in the region, as well as to provide them with opportunities to grow and participate in the development process. This is one of the outcomes of the Al Quoz Creative Zone Development Committee, which oversees the implementation of the Al Quoz Creative Zone Development Project and is chaired by Her Highness Sheikha Latifa bint Mohammed, and is part of Dubai’s vision which aims to strengthen the cultural and creative economy.
