Personal Advisor with You at Every Step
Business setup brings your activity, legal structure and operating permissions together. Decide what the company will do, where it will work and what it needs after licensing before selecting a package.
Describe the services or goods you will provide, then match them to permitted activities. The legal form affects ownership, liability and application documents; an LLC, sole establishment and branch serve different needs.
Search business activities as a starting point, then confirm the code with the chosen authority. Explore license types and requirements for activity-specific guidance.
Separate licensing and registration, service fees, premises, immigration costs and ongoing compliance. Share capital and operating funds are different from setup fees; there is no universal minimum investment for every Dubai company.
Use the business setup cost calculator for a planning estimate. Compare Mainland packages and UAE Free Zone offers, checking the actual emirate, inclusions, exclusions and renewal basis.
Dubai Mainland formation follows the Department of Economy and Tourism licensing route. Free Zones have their own authorities, activities and facility options. Check permissions to operate outside a zone rather than assuming every license has the same reach.
Review IFZA, Meydan and Dubai South against your needs. Our Mainland and Free Zone comparison explains the main planning differences.
Visa applications depend on eligibility and the company's arrangements. Banking follows the bank's own due diligence process. Neither outcome is guaranteed by license issuance, so allow for separate documents and timelines.
Prepare an ownership summary, a clear business description and supporting records for the bank. Ask for a written scope covering the formation work and any follow-up applications. A Golden Visa is a separate eligibility route, not a standard benefit of every setup.
Request an authority-specific checklist covering identification, shareholders and any corporate documents. Confirm external approvals and whether the activity needs an office, shop, warehouse or permitted shared workspace before signing a lease.
Foreign documents may need attestation or legal translation. Confirm the required format first.
Keep records from the start and assess applicable corporate tax and VAT obligations. Free Zone registration alone does not make all income tax-free: qualifying status and income conditions matter.
Explore accounting support, corporate tax registration and VAT advisory according to your circumstances.
Check your chosen activity and authority before applying. Official references: Dubai setup guidance, Free Zone structures and FTA Free Zone tax guidance.
