Change Status Sponsored Visit Visa UAE
Change of status lets someone already inside the UAE on a sponsored visit visa move to resident status without leaving the country first. Pure Docs Business Consultant Services checks the sponsor's Emirates ID, the applicant's entry permit and passport together, then files the change of status with GDRFA on your behalf.
Required Documents
- Sponsor's Emirates ID copy
- Applicant's entry permit copy
- Applicant's passport copy
Important Notes
- We begin work on the request once every document has been received and checked.
- Some files call for the sponsor's original Emirates ID rather than a copy. We will flag this in advance and arrange a collection.
- Any outstanding amount on the immigration system, such as an overstay fine or an open sponsor file, is settled separately through its own payment link before we proceed.
