Question

Answer 1

Even if you do get a nationality (though I seriously doubt it), you'd still be officially classified as a second class citizen!

Answer 2

No chance whatsoever. Think about it logically, more than 80% of UAE's population is foreign. If you and other expats are naturalized, their country will have gone in the hands of expats within the span of ONE generation. Do you think this is ever going to happen? Don't you know the level of racism in these countries? (they consider themselves to be islamic countries still) but they can carry on believing what they want.

You, on the other hand, should get this out of your mind totally and work on something else.

Answer 3

Nil. I too know of a lot of UAE bred and born expats whose parents are likewise born and bred in UAE. They don't had out citizenships just like that.

Answer 4

UAE citizenship for highly-skilled professionals

Labor Minister Dr. Ali bin Abdullah Al Kaabi recently proposed the granting of UAE citizenship to a select category of highly qualified and skilled professionals who have the potential to contribute to national development. According to the minister, such a move would allow the country to benefit from the expertise of these professionals.
