dependent visa

A dependent visa allows family members—such as a spouse or children—to live in a country legally while the primary holder (like a work or student visa holder) resides there. It enables the dependents to stay, and sometimes work or study, depending on the country's rules. This visa ensures families can remain together during the primary holder’s stay, providing legal permission for their residence without needing separate or individual visas. Requirements and benefits vary by country, but overall, it facilitates family unity during temporary or long-term stays.
