FAQs On Company Registration in Dubai

In Dubai, you can pursue a wide variety of business ventures, including trading, service industries, manufacturing, and technology. You have the flexibility to choose between setting up your business on the mainland or in a free zone that caters to your specific industry.

Setting up a company in Dubai is a straightforward process that typically takes between 1 and 2 weeks. However, the exact timeframe can vary depending on factors such as the chosen free zone, the nature of your business, the completeness of your documentation, and other specific requirements.

A key di erence between Dubai free zone and mainland companies lies in their trading permissions. Free zone companies cannot trade directly within the UAE and require local distributors to operate outside the free zone. Mainland companies, however, face no such restrictions and can freely trade across the UAE without needing distributors.

Dubai o ers foreign investors the attractive benefit of 100% business ownership in both mainland and free zone locations, eliminating the need for a local partner. It's important to note, though, that certain business activities on the UAE mainland still require a local partner with a majority stake (typically 51% or more).

The cost of establishing a business in the UAE, whether on the mainland or in a free zone, is influenced by various factors. These include license fees, o ice space expenses, government charges, and visa costs. Additionally, your specific business activities and the size of your company will impact the overall expenses. Thorough research and careful planning are essential to accurately determine the costs associated with your business setup.
