Easy Steps
To Start Your Business in the UAE

We recommend having a basic understanding of your business activity, the number of shareholders, your target customers, and office space requirements.

Selecting the Right Jurisdiction

We will assist you in selecting the right jurisdiction for your company, tailored to your unique needs and target market. You can establish your business in the UAE Mainland for maximum operational flexibility, leverage the benefits of a Free Zone setup if you specialize in a specific industry or seek cost-effective solutions, or consider an offshore setup to take advantage of the UAE’s thriving business environment from anywhere in the world.

3

Applying for Trade License

Prepare all your registration documents, including your Application Form, Memorandum of Association, Certificate of Incorporation, Bank and Residency Statements, and more. Requirements differ depending on the license type and jurisdiction, so our team will gladly assist you throughout the process.

Initiating Visa and Emirates ID Applications

Before relocating to the UAE, it is essential to apply for the necessary visas for yourself, your employees, and any dependents, if required. The specific visa options and the availability of visas for your staff and dependents will depend on the jurisdiction you have selected for your business. Our team will guide you through the visa application process and provide relevant information and support to ensure a smooth and successful transition to the UAE.

5

Register for Corporate Tax

All Businesses in the UAE must register for Corporate Tax. Those with a taxable income exceeding AED 375,000 per year must adhere to a 9% tax rate. Non-compliance will result in an AED 10,000 penalty. Our expert tax advisors will guide you through every step, from registration to filing, and assist with all your tax and accounting needs.

Opening a Corporate Bank Account

A corporate bank account is necessary to conduct business in the UAE. You can choose from several national, international, and digital banks, depending on your financial requirements.
