What type of UAE companies can I start?

In the UAE, you can establish a mainland, free zone, or offshore company. Mainland companies require a local sponsor and are licensed by the Department of Economic Development (DED), allowing you to operate throughout the UAE and internationally. Free zone companies are licensed by specific free zone authorities and are limited to operating within those zones, offering benefits like 100% foreign ownership. Offshore companies, designed for asset protection and international trade, cannot operate within the UAE and receive a certificate of incorporation instead of a trade license. The UAE allows over 1,000 business activities across these options.

How to renew my business license in the mainland?

To renew a commercial license in the UAE, the applicant must submit the DED-registered certificate along with necessary approvals from the Ministry of Economy and the National Media Council. For trade license renewal, a valid Ejari certificate and other lease agreements are required. Accurate Middle East assists entrepreneurs with obtaining and renewing their business licenses on time, ensuring a smooth process.

Why should I start my company in UAE?

The UAE is strategically located, making it an ideal destination for global business investment. With no capital restrictions and tax-free advantages, it offers excellent logistics and infrastructure across all emirates. The country’s financial freedom attracts talent from around the world, creating a dynamic business environment. UAE presents incredible business opportunities, and a business setup consultant can guide you through the entire company formation process to ensure a seamless experience.

How long will it take to setup a free zone company?

How to start an LLC company in UAE?

To establish your LLC company in Dubai mainland or anywhere else in the UAE, you must first reserve a trade name and secure all necessary preliminary approvals from the relevant authorities. Following that, you’ll need to draft a Memorandum of Association (MOA) for the company and submit a valid lease contract to the licensing authority. Additionally, finding a local partner and securing office space are essential steps to complete the business setup process. Accurate Middle East offers a range of inclusive and affordable packages tailored to meet your specific business setup requirements, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for starting your LLC in the UAE. With our expert guidance, you can focus on growing your business while we handle the complexities of legal and administrative tasks.

What kind of company structure should I choose?

The type of company you set up in the UAE depends on your specific needs and business goals. You can choose from several structures, such as a Sole Establishment (also known as Sole Proprietorship), Limited Liability Partnership, Limited Liability Company (LLC), Private Limited Company, or Professional Services Company. Additionally, you can opt to establish your business on the mainland, in a free zone (where only LLC structures are allowed), or offshore, depending on the nature of your operations and the benefits you’re seeking.

Do I need to rent an office for my business?

A physical presence is required for companies set up on the mainland and in free zones, while offshore companies are not permitted to lease office space in the UAE. The good news is that affordable office space options are available to suit various budgets. If you’re looking to minimize initial costs, you can consider renting a fully furnished office or a dedicated desk in a co-working space on the mainland. Free zones require you to rent at least a desk in a shared office space, and some even offer flexi-desk options, where you use a desk for limited hours per week while still getting a dedicated PO Box and a unique business address. This provides flexibility while keeping costs down.
