Seen the buzz on Instagram, Facebook, X, or even in your WhatsApp forwards?
There’s a viral claim going around that Indians can now get a lifetime UAE Golden Visa for AED 100,000 through a so-called “nomination-based visa.”
Let’s set the record straight: that’s simply not true.
What the ICP actually said

According to the UAE’s Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security (ICP), the viral claims are false.
The ICP has officially denied the rumours, confirming that Golden Visas are granted strictly based on approved laws and eligibility criteria — not nationality.
What did the false reports claim?
Some media outlets and a foreign consultancy falsely claimed that all Indian citizens could get a lifetime UAE Golden Visa by paying AED 100,000.
They referred to it as a “nomination-based visa” — but UAE authorities have confirmed that no such program exists.
This is your PSA to ONLY trust official sources
Authorities have warned the public:
- Don’t trust fake Golden Visa offers
- Don’t pay unverified consultants
- Never share personal documents with unofficial parties
- Always check visa info via ICP’s website or call 600522222 (available 24/7)
