Working remotely for Dubai company

8 years ago

Hi,

I'll start to work REMOTELY for a company in Dubai from the start of December until I'm ready to leave Europe around February-March. From a business perspective there'll be no issues in working remotely from another country, but will this be possible from a visa point of view? My initial idea was to start with the job remotely, going to Dubai after this starting date (is there a limited time window for this?) to arrange bank account and visa and then come back to Europe until I'll be ready to leave permanently.

The issue is that for personal reasons I can't just leave Europe around the role starting date but it is possible for me to visit Dubai within that period if necessary.

Any help is more then welcome!
