Hello All,
Hopefully one of you may have some experience / information you could share with me to shed some light on my current situation.
My Girlfriend has been offered a great position for a company based in Dubai and she has excepted as its a good opportunity for her. We both currently live in UK and our full UK citizens. Naturally I also wish to join her out in Dubai.
To my present suprise after discussing this with my boss, he said that they (my employers) would be happy to continue to employ me whilst being based in Dubai.
I work for a successful American IT corporation with offices in the US, UK, India and Malaysia.
So I am now trying to find out the best way to obtain a Residency / Work Visa for myself. My girlfriend will be sponsored by her new employers.
To obtain a visa to stay and work for my present company would i need to set up an office or would a letter from my company suffice? Or would i need to have Sponsor still?
My plan will be to work from home as it may be difficult to get my company to rent a work premises because my work are agreeing to employ me from Dubai rather then asking me to relocate.
Many thanks in advance if any one can help.
