Press release:

UAE-based global mobility technology startup Multipolitan has raised $2 million in a pre-seed funding round led by EmergentX, at a pre-money valuation of $25 million (AED 91.81 million).

Founded in 2024, Multipolitan develops technology to help individuals and families manage international travel, immigration requirements and cross-border relocation. The company plans to launch its consumer application in December 2026, bringing together visa, travel and personal document management services on a single platform.

The forthcoming application will allow users to manage passports and visas, receive document expiry alerts, check travel and entry requirements, track flight updates and monitor residency periods to comply with immigration rules.

Multipolitan's technology is built around three proprietary systems: INREX, which analyses immigration information; FlightIQ, which provides real-time travel and flight data; and Visa Connect, which supports AI-powered visa management.

The company said revenue from services provided to private-sector clients has exceeded $4 million in less than two years. It aims to use its existing business operations and technology infrastructure to develop a consumer platform targeting internationally mobile individuals, entrepreneurs, digital nomads and families.

Headquartered in the UAE, Multipolitan holds an innovation accreditation from Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The company employs more than 40 people across the UAE, India and Singapore and plans to expand its team.

The investment comes ahead of Multipolitan's planned December launch, although the company has not disclosed a detailed allocation of the new capital or specific geographic expansion targets.
