ABUDHABI, July 7: Bangladeshi nationals can now access specialized assistance in applying for the UAE Golden Visa, thanks to a new advisory service launched by VFS Global, a leading visa outsourcing and technology services provider.

Applicants in Bangladesh can access the service online or by calling the dedicated helpline at +880 1739 861116. The advisory service is offered through a newly established Centre of Excellence in Dhaka, jointly launched by VFS ETM—a unit of VFS Global—and its partner, the Rayad Group. This marks the first rollout of its kind in the country.

The UAE Golden Visa grants eligible individuals a 10-year residency, offering long-term benefits to investors, entrepreneurs, professionals, scientists, creatives, and social media influencers who meet the prescribed criteria. Holders of the visa are also permitted to sponsor their spouses, children—including adult dependents—parents, and household staff.

The Dhaka centre provides comprehensive support for migration and compliance processes, combining legal advisory with advanced generative AI tools to ensure accuracy and efficiency.

“We believe there is a strong demand for immigration advisory services, particularly for the UAE Golden Visa. In line with our customer-first approach, we are pleased to introduce this solution that enables applicants to fully understand the process and make informed decisions,” said Yummi Talwar, Chief Operating Officer for South Asia at VFS Global.

Highlighting the appeal of the UAE as a migration destination, Rayad Kamal Ayub, Managing Director of Rayad Group, noted: “The UAE’s combination of economic stability, favorable tax policies, and high standard of living makes it an attractive destination for high-net-worth individuals seeking growth opportunities and an enhanced quality of life.”
