 Hey guys, welcome to OxyVlogs! If this is your first time here and you would like to know more about life in Dubai, don't forget to hit subscribe button and the notification icon so you will not miss anything. I've been living in Dubai from 2012 and one of the most popular questions I receive on Instagram, on YouTube, Oxy, how long are you planning to stay in Dubai? To be honest, I had different times. Sometimes I wanted to move somewhere else, but then after considering different options, I realized that Dubai is the best option for me at the moment. This country is growing very fast and UE has been launching new laws that makes the life of experts easier. So in this video, I want to review some of the latest updates. You probably know that before men and women couldn't live together here if they are not married. So now it's been changed and if you are not married, you are a couple, you can move to Dubai and stay and live in the same apartment. Even if you are just flatmates, still men and women can share one apartment together. You and George and me, we could live together again. People who have never been to Dubai think that this place is very strict. You cannot drink alcohol, you cannot wear just normal clothes, you need to cover yourself, especially women and so on, but these are all myths. Dubai is a great international place and now you can even buy alcohol without a license. You can just go to the store, to the dedicated store, buy the alcohol, but you need to consume it in a private or authorized location and you must be over the age of 21. The next update is related to opening a business in Dubai. So before, if you wanted to have an onshore company in Dubai, you had to have a local sponsor who holds 51% share. So now it's been changed. There is a list of certain activities that don't require to have a local sponsor and you can have 100% ownership of your onshore company. Things are good, make more money. So this way the UAE is trying to attract more investors and bring more foreign capital to the country. We all know that most people consider Dubai as a place where they come to work, make money and then after a couple of years they go back home or they move somewhere else. So Dubai wants to change this and allow experts to make a life here and invest more money in this city. Dubai has launched a retirement program, so professionals and investors who are above 55 years old and they wish to live and work in this city, they can join this program. But there are certain requirements and they need to meet at least one of them. They must have a monthly income of approximately 4,600 euros or have proof of savings in excess of 230,000 euros. As an option, they must own a property worth at least 460,000 euros or have combined savings and property valued at a minimum 460,000 euros. The idea of this program is to allow people to spend their retirement in this country, enjoy the sunshine, beautiful weather, amazing lifestyle and at the same time boost the economy on the country. And the update number five is the new remote work visa for those who work remotely. I have the whole video about this topic on my channel, so check it out. I will leave the link to the video somewhere here. So guys, as you see, the EU government is trying to create a better life for Dubai expats and bring more investors to this country and grow the economy here. If you're considering to move to Dubai, it's definitely one of the best places I think in the world at the moment to make money, to grow professionally and enjoy a beautiful lifestyle.
