Cancelling Investor Visa for my mom
Hi guys, I have been trying to cancel my mom’s investor visa for almost 5 months now and it has been such a headache.
She has an Investor visa at RAKEZ. It was supposed to be for both my mom and dad. My mom got her visa first in Nov 2024. Dad was in the process of getting it, unfortunately he had a heart attack and passed away in Jan 2025. Since then we didn’t really look into the visa process, we asked for refund of my dad’s visa application but they said they can’t refund it.
Now the issue is the company trade license has expired and we need to either renew it or cancel and I definitely want to cancel since we are not running any business through RAKEZ. But in order to cancel, they said I need to attain a succession certificate from the Sharjah court (because dad’s last visa was in Sharjah). The Sharjah court says I need to go to RAK court because mom has RAK visa. I have been going back and forth so many times and it is very frustrating.
Mom’s visa expires this coming November and I need to get this done with before that, so I can get a new visa for her under my sponsorship.
Is there any solution to this ? Also, can I proceed with cancelling this visa and figure out the trade license cancellation later while I get a new visa for her ? She is living here with me and we don’t have a place to go in India so I cannot afford to let her go and then come back here later.
