Is it required to cancel a Golden Visa upon setting up a company?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a Golden Visa holder (10 years) and my wife is under my sponsorship and has a Golden Visa as well. She is setting up a sole proprietorship professional company in Abu Dhabi (UAE) for MoHRE registration and e-channel.

Does she need to change her visa from Golden Visa to her company visa? Does she have to cancel her Golden Visa?

The TAMM system is asking her to cancel her current visa, which is a Golden Visa.

Please help!

Thanks for your question! I hope you are doing well. I will definitely assist you in this matter.

As a Golden Visa holder, your wife can establish a sole proprietorship professional company in Abu Dhabi without canceling her Golden Visa.

The process of setting up a company in Abu Dhabi, including MOHRE registration and e-channel, does not necessarily require her to change her visa status.
