Hello,

The amnesty program usually allows individuals to regularize their status or leave the country without facing penalties.

However, applying for a residency visa after taking advantage of an amnesty program often requires meeting certain criteria.

Dear Questioner,

According to UAE law, individuals who avail the amnesty facility are required to leave the country within the specified time period.

They are not eligible to apply for a resident visa during this time. However, after leaving the country, they may be able to apply for a new visa through regular channels, such as employment or sponsorship by a family member.

It is important to note that each case is evaluated on an individual basis and the final decision is at the discretion of the immigration authorities.
