As a freelancer or self-employed person, they must obtain a licence from the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization.

Professionals

For the green visa, experts in 9 disciplines, such as science, law, education, culture, and social sciences, will also be taken into consideration. Candidates must hold a bachelor's degree, make at least AED 15,000 (Rs 3,24,581 per month), and have a valid work visa for the United Arab Emirates. If a person spends more than six months outside of the UAE, their green visa will be cancelled.
