I recently moved to Dubai and have just completed my residency Visa, I am returning home for the holidays and upon my return in January I will have my wife and daughter with me.
My question is regarding my daughter as my wife will have a job therefor her own visa.I have been told for my daughter I can sponsor her on my visa by bringing with me;
1: My passport containing my residency visa [color=#FF0000]yes
2: My daughters passport yes
3: My marriage certificate (really? I didnt intend bringing this with me) yes, properly legalized
4: My daughters birth certificate yes, properly legalized
5: A copy of my salary Salary certificate. it should be issued locally
6: A tenancy contract (this I do not have nor know where to obtain) you should get it from the landlord or the agent that rented out the apartment for you
7: My Emirate ID i do not think this is so important
Firstly is this info correct or is there more paperwork I will need. And secondly if I live with my father-in-law and work for his company will I need the tenancy contract.
Thankyou in advance to anyone with answers...![]()

No, I'm not from Netherlands.
Thanks anyway, I already cancelled everything and now going to another arab country. I'm still very angry coz of that ridiculous age limit, but what can I do. I suppose I'll visit UAE in some other time.
