Side by side

Know before you choose

  • AED 12,500 and AED 15,000 are 'from' prices.
  • No bundled 1-visa or 2-visa package is published; visa costs are separate lines. The Meydan home page says a first investor visa typically adds around AED 7,850; that total is not a package price.
  • The price list is undated and hosted on a Meydan-named file bucket. Prices are quoted VAT inclusive.
  • The price list shows licence 12,125 plus desk 375; the blog and home page show 12,500 as one figure.
  • Up to six visa allocations per licence per the Meydan blog.

We could not find these on the sources we read: the renewal price, a 1-visa package price, a 2-visa package price, the rules for trading on the mainland.
