Process of Business Setup in Dubai and the UAE

  1. Initial Consultation with Business Setup Expert

Your journey begins with a free consultation with one of our experienced business setup advisors. During this session, we’ll discuss your business activity, structure, shareholders, and target market to help you choose the most suitable setup plan. Whether you already have a detailed business concept or need guidance, our experts will support you every step of the way.

  1. Choosing the Right Jurisdiction

Selecting the right jurisdiction is crucial for the success of your business. You can choose from three main options: Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore. Each comes with its own advantages in terms of ownership, cost, flexibility, and target market. Our team will evaluate your goals and recommend the ideal jurisdiction for your company setup in Dubai or across the UAE.

  1. Preparing and Submitting Documents

The documentation stage can be complex, especially for international entrepreneurs. We handle the entire process — from preparing the Memorandum of Association and application forms to gathering approvals from government departments. With our assistance, you’ll save valuable time and avoid common setup delays.

  1. Obtaining Your Trade License

Your trade license is the legal foundation of your business. Depending on your chosen activity and jurisdiction, you may need special approvals from regulatory authorities. We’ll manage your license application from start to finish, ensuring all paperwork is accurate and compliant so you can begin operations quickly and confidently.

  1. Processing Visas and Emirates IDs

Once your company is registered, you can apply for visas for yourself, your employees, and dependents. We’ll assist you with every stage — from entry permits and medical tests to Emirates ID issuance — ensuring a seamless transition to living and working in the UAE.

  1. Registering for Corporate Tax

Every UAE business must register for Corporate Tax. Companies earning over AED 375,000 annually are subject to a 9% tax rate. Our tax consultants will guide you through the registration process, help with filings, and ensure full compliance with UAE tax regulations.

  1. Opening a Corporate Bank Account

A corporate bank account is essential for business operations. The process can be intricate for foreign investors, as banks require detailed documentation and background checks. We’ll help you prepare all necessary paperwork, recommend reliable banking partners, and assist until your account is successfully opened.

              Partnering with all major free zones, banks, notaries and consulates in the UAE, we are committed to each client, fostering long-term relationships by providing smart and timely solutions.

FAQ

Why should I choose Dubai to start my business?

Dubai offers one of the most business-friendly environments in the world — with 0% personal income tax, full foreign ownership options, and access to world-class infrastructure. The city’s strategic location connects businesses to markets across the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Europe. Combined with political stability, strong legal frameworks, and a high quality of life, Dubai provides the perfect foundation for global entrepreneurs and investors.

How long does it take to set up a company in Dubai?

The setup process can take as little as 3 to 7 working days, depending on your chosen business activity, jurisdiction, and license type. Mainland setups may require additional approvals, while Free Zone and Offshore registrations are typically faster. With our professional assistance, you can launch your business quickly and without unnecessary delays.

Can foreigners own 100% of a company in the UAE?

Yes. As of the UAE’s 2021 company law reforms, foreign investors can own 100% of their businesses across most Mainland activities, in addition to Free Zone and Offshore setups where full ownership has always been allowed. This reform makes the UAE one of the most open and investor-friendly markets globally.

What are the main types of business licenses in Dubai?

  • There are three primary types of trade licenses in the UAE:
  • Commercial License – for trading and general business activities.
  • Professional License – for service providers, consultants, and specialists.
  • Industrial License – for manufacturing or industrial operations.

Each license type may require specific approvals based on your chosen activity and jurisdiction.

What is the difference between Mainland, Free Zone, and Offshore company setups?

  • Mainland: Operate anywhere in the UAE and internationally, with no restriction on business activities or visa quotas.
  • Free Zone: Enjoy 100% ownership, tax benefits, and simplified setup — ideal for international or sector-specific businesses.
  • Offshore: Manage global operations from the UAE without a physical presence, perfect for asset protection and international trade.

Our consultants can help you choose the best option based on your goals and budget.

What documents are required to start a business in Dubai?

Generally, you’ll need:

  • Passport copies of shareholders and directors
  • Proof of address
  • Proposed trade name
  • Business activity list
  • Memorandum of Association (for certain structures)
  • Initial approval from the licensing authority
  • Depending on your jurisdiction, additional documents may be required — we’ll handle all documentation and attestations for you.

Do I need a physical office to open a company in the UAE?

That depends on your chosen setup. Mainland companies must have a registered office address, while many Free Zones offer flexible office options like virtual desks or shared spaces. Offshore companies do not require physical premises. We’ll help you find the most cost-effective solution that meets all legal requirements.

How much does it cost to set up a business in Dubai?

The cost of company formation varies depending on the type of license, number of visas, and jurisdiction. On average, a Free Zone company setup starts from around AED 6,000–12,000, while a Mainland license typically starts from AED 15,000–20,000. Our team provides transparent quotes with no hidden fees, ensuring you get the best value for your investment.

How can I open a corporate bank account in the UAE?

After obtaining your trade license, you can open a corporate account with a local, international, or digital bank in the UAE. Each bank has its own requirements regarding documentation and business activity. We’ll guide you through the process, prepare all necessary documents, and connect you with the most suitable banking partners for smooth account opening.

Can I get a residence visa through my company setup?

Yes. Business owners are eligible to apply for Investor or Partner visas, which also allow sponsoring family members and employees. The number of visas depends on your office size and license type. Our visa specialists will manage the entire process — from application and medical tests to Emirates ID registration.
