“Our collaboration with Rayad Group reflects a shared commitment to delivering exceptional service to our customers.

Rayad Kamal Ayub, Managing Director of Rayad Group, said, “We recognise the strategic importance of this partnership, particularly in light of the evolving considerations for U.S. Green Card holders. The recently announced ‘Gold Card’ initiative has generated significant interest among ultra-high-net-worth individuals. According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, the program may offer exemptions from income tax on global earnings for eligible participants, further enhancing its appeal.” The changing immigration pattern of Indians applying for the Golden Visa in the United Arab Emirates and other countries has made India a leading global immigration market.
