Get the right immigration procedure
Choosing the correct immigration procedure is important because the required documents, fees and application steps can differ depending on the applicant's current status and intended visa category.
We review the case first and help identify the applicable procedure before the application is submitted.
Residency and renewal support
Amer-related services can support eligible residency applications and renewals in Dubai. The process may involve medical fitness, Emirates ID and other requirements depending on the applicant's category.
We help coordinate the applicable stages and keep the documentation organised throughout the process.
Change your UAE visa status
Applicants already inside the UAE may be eligible for certain status change procedures depending on their visa category and circumstances.
The applicable government fees, requirements and process depend on the specific application and current immigration status.
Family and dependent immigration support
Families may use applicable Amer services for dependent and family residency procedures, subject to the sponsor and dependent meeting the relevant requirements.
Relationship documents, identity documents and other supporting paperwork may be required depending on the application.
Fees depend on the immigration procedure
There is no single Amer Center fee for every application. Government charges vary according to the visa type, residency category, application status and specific service requested.
Medical fitness, Emirates ID, insurance and other government or processing charges may be separate from the service centre or professional assistance fee.
