I am a Pakistani national married to a woman who has a son from her previous husband, who is no more. My wife intends to sponsor the UAE residency visa of this son. I have a 'no-objection certificate' issued by the Court in Pakistan, death certificate of the deceased husband of my wife and birth certificate of her son. How do I apply for his visa?
You should first notariise and legalise all the aforementioned documents in Pakistan from a notary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan and then by the Embassy of UAE in Pakistan. Upon the legalisation of these documents in Pakistan, the said papers need to be attested by Ministry of Foreigners Affairs and International Co-operation in the UAE. Thereafter, you may make an application as a special case for residence visa to The General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs Department (the 'DNRD'), for the son of your wife. The approval of the application is solely at the discretion of DNRD. For further queries, you may contact the department.
Know the law
After legalisation of documents in Pakistan and attestations in UAE, one can make an application as a special case for residence visa to DNRD for son from your wife's previous marriage.
