Your company in Dubai, set up and operational in days.

Can a company be opened without travelling to Dubai?

Yes, in most cases. We manage the entire process remotely with a notarised power of attorney. Physical presence is only required for bank account opening in certain banks.

How long does company formation take?

In a Freezone: 6 to 10 business days for the Trade Licence. The bank account then requires an additional 2 to 4 weeks depending on the chosen bank.

Is a UAE national partner required?

No for Freezones (100% foreign ownership) and most Mainland activities since the 2021 reform. Our local network handles cases where an LSA (Local Service Agent) is required.

Is there corporate tax in Dubai?

Since 2023, a 9% tax applies to profits above AED 375,000 (~EUR 90,000). Below this threshold — and for Qualifying Free Zone Persons — the rate is 0%. No VAT applies to international B2B transactions from a Freezone.

How do I open a business bank account in Dubai?

This is often the most demanding step. Banks such as Emirates NBD, ADCB or Mashreq require a full file (licence, MoA, passports, proof of address). We prepare the file and attend the meeting with you: the account is typically open within 2 to 4 weeks.

What is the difference between a Freezone and Mainland?

A Freezone gives 100% foreign ownership, lower setup costs and a fast process — but the company cannot invoice UAE clients outside its zone directly (except via a Mainland distributor). Mainland allows trading with any UAE business or government body, but the process is longer and costs higher.
