Got questions? We’re here to help. This section covers the most commonly asked questions about setting up a business in Dubai.

The cost to establish a company in Dubai depends on factors like the business type, location (Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore), and specific needs such as licensing and office requirements. Free Zone setups can begin at a few thousand dirhams, while Mainland options may have higher costs due to physical office requirements.

We offer a clear, detailed cost outline so you can plan confidently, with no hidden charges while paying no service charges.

Dubai actively supports foreign investment, offering various setup options tailored to international entrepreneurs. In Free Zones, foreign investors can own 100% of their business, which makes these areas especially attractive.

Mainland businesses now also allow 100% foreign ownership, providing even more flexibility.

Mainland companies let you operate both within the UAE market and internationally. Free Zone companies, however, offer full foreign ownership and tax benefits, making them ideal for businesses focused on international or online trade. Typically, Free Zone companies need a local distributor to trade directly within the UAE.

We guide you through these options to help you select the best structure for your business needs.

The time needed to set up a business in Dubai varies based on the type of entity, necessary licenses, and document completion. Free Zone companies are often ready in 5–10 business days, while Mainland setups may take longer due to extra approvals.

We manage the process efficiently, working closely with authorities to ensure your business is up and running smoothly and as quickly as possible.

For company formation, the main documents needed include passport copies of shareholders, proof of address, passport photos, and occasionally a business plan or bank reference. Mainland companies may require extra documents depending on the industry.

Our team supplies a thorough checklist and supports you in collecting and verifying each document to ensure full compliance with UAE regulations.

Setting up in a Free Zone offers many advantages: 100% foreign ownership, corporate and personal tax exemptions, full profit repatriation, and simplified import/export processes. Many Free Zones also offer business-friendly infrastructure and sector-specific benefits, such as logistics or media.

While Free Zone companies have trade limitations within the UAE market, they are ideal for businesses targeting international markets. We help you choose the right Free Zone based on your business needs.

Yes, opening a business bank account is a crucial step in establishing your company. We work with various local and international banks in the UAE to facilitate the process.

Requirements include company registration documents, a shareholder’s passport, and proof of address. We assist with preparing the documentation and liaising with banks to make account setup as seamless as possible.

Registering a company involves several essential steps: defining your business activity, choosing an entity type (Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore), registering a trade name, obtaining necessary approvals, and securing a business license. Once all documents are in order, you can set up bank accounts and start operations.

We handle each step to ensure compliance and a smooth, efficient process from beginning to end.
