The procedure for obtaining a golden visa in Dubai begins with a nomination from your educational institution. If they approve your application, they will begin the clearance process through the Office of Knowledge and Human Development system.

Currently, many schools in Dubai have already started establishing internal committees to assess teachers' eligibility for the Golden Visa program as per the guidelines of the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA). Institutions consider all achievements and contributions during tenure, this process allows the school to identify teachers who not only meet the KHDA criteria, but also embody the vision and values ​​of the school, ensuring a meaningful nomination.

Dubai authorities also announced earlier this year that they would grant golden visas to preachers who have served for more than 20 years.
