Hi Momen129,

To live and work in Dubai you'd need a residence visa and a work permit. The ideal way to do it is to find a job before moving to Dubai, as in this case, your employer would take care of the application process for both the visa and the work permit. What industry do you work in? You can have a look at our pages on Visas for Dubai and Work Permits for Dubai for some more info.

Hi. You need to first secure a job, and once an employer hires you, they will then help you to apply for a work permit, or they will do it on your behalf.
