Our Consultation & Relocation Process

Typical Timeline: 6 months from initial planning to settled arrival, though individual circumstances vary.

Step 1:

Initial Consultation & Strategy Call within 7 days of engagement

Every relocation begins with an in depth consultation.
This session is designed to understand your situation in full, including:

  • Your personal and family circumstances
  • Your business, employment or income structure
  • Your objectives for relocating (lifestyle, business, long-term planning)
  • Your proposed timeline and level of readiness


This allows us to assess whether Dubai and the UAE are genuinely the right fit for you and, if so, which relocation route is most appropriate.
We believe in clear, honest advice. If Dubai is not suitable for your circumstances, we will tell you.

 

Step 2:

Strategic Relocation Planning 6-4 Months Before Arrival

Once suitability is confirmed, we develop a tailored relocation strategy.

This stage focuses on clarity and sequencing, including:

  • Identifying the most appropriate visa and residency pathway
  • Determining whether business setup, employment or family sponsorship is required
  • Considering property strategy, education options, and relocation logistics
  • Highlighting critical UK side considerations (document attestation, tax exit, financial arrangements)

By the end of this stage, clients receive a personalised relocation roadmap document outlining your specific visa pathway, service sequencing, key deadlines, and budget requirements.

You will have a clear understanding of what needs to happen, in what order, and why.

Step 3:

Business Setup & Residency Coordination Where Applicable

For clients relocating via business setup or self employment, this stage forms the foundation of the move.

We coordinate and oversee:

  • Company structure selection (mainland or free zone)
  • Business activity and licence alignment
  • Visa eligibility and sponsorship pathways
  • Assessment of long-term residency options, including Golden Visa eligibility where applicable
  • Introductions to specialist partners where required

We manage all activity in close coordination with trusted UAE partners to ensure accuracy, compliance and efficiency.

Step 4:

Personal Relocation & Lifestyle Setup 3-2 Months Before + Arrival

Once residency is underway, we support the practical elements of establishing life in the UAE.

This may include coordination across:

  • Emirates ID and documentation processes
  • Home removals and international shipping
  • Banking introductions and account preparation
  • Property search support for renting or purchasing
  • Education and schooling coordination
  • Medical insurance and healthcare access
  • Vehicle leasing and driving licence conversion
  • Pet relocation services
  • Arrival and lifestyle setup support

Throughout this phase, Dubai Oneway acts as a single point of contact, coordinating multiple services so clients are not managing numerous providers independently.

Step 5:

Ongoing Support Post-Arrival

Relocation support continues after arrival and includes:

  • Ongoing residency and visa guidance during settlement period
  • Partner coordination as needs evolve
  • Troubleshooting and issue resolution
  • Guidance as circumstances, regulations or goals change

This ensures your relocation remains compliant, structured and sustainable during the critical settlement period.

Extended support packages are available for clients requiring longer-term assistance.
