Investors and foreign companies interested in establishing a business or presence in the United Arab Emirates must register either a local company in the mainland or set up a company in specialized designated areas where 100% foreign ownership is allowed, called ‘Free Zones’.

Mainland Company Incorporation:

The Department of Economic Development is the main business licensing institution regulating the formation of businesses in the Emirate of Dubai. The types of licenses issued by the DED are:

Trading license

Issued for a limited liability company LLC, public joint stock company PJSC, or private shareholding company PSC.

For the limited liability company, which is the most common form and cost effective option for setting up a business in the UAE, the UAE Commercial Companies Law requires that 51% of the shareholding be registered in the name of a UAE national, or a company 100% owned by UAE nationals. It is a common practice in the UAE that the UAE national who is acting as a local sponsor, signs side agreements protecting the rights of the expatriate shareholders, and their actual stake/shareholding in the business, and granting them full control of the management of the Company. Our lawyers draw on their 16 years of in UAE Laws and the protection of Investors’ rights in the UAE to draft such agreements.

Professional License (Civil Company)

Issued for qualified professionals and companies in the field of engineering, consultancy and vocational activities.

Branch or representative office

A Branch of a foreign Company can only carry out the activity of the parent company

A Representative Office can only conduct promotional activities for the benefit of the parent company.

Free zone company incorporation:

A free zone company allows foreign investors to set up their business and own the entire one hundred percent shareholding in the zone company, without the need for a local sponsor.

Our Business Setup Lawyers in Dubai will advise and assist you in company formation for all major free zones in the United Arab Emirates which include:

The Emirate of Dubai offers specialized free zones like Jebel Ali Free Zone, Dubai Internet City, Dubai Media City, Dubai Multi-Commodities Centre and several other free zones where industry specific companies are provided licenses to operate. However, small and medium size businesses prefer to setup in the free zones established in other smaller Emirates such as Sharjah, Fujeirah and Ajman, for cheaper business set up.
