The Blue visa is a 10-year residence visa designed for individuals who have made an exceptional contribution towards the environment’s protection and sustainability, both inside and outside the UAE.

This visa is given to supporters of environmental action, including members of international organisations, international companies, members of associations and non-governmental organisations, global award winners, and distinguished activists and researchers in environmental work.

Sustainability advocates and experts interested in obtaining the UAE’s Blue visa can apply to Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security, or through nomination by competent authorities in the UAE.
