Company Formation in Dubai & the UAE

Mainland, free zone or offshore โ€” we recommend the right structure for your activity and budget, then handle the entire licence process for you.

Starting a company in the UAE should be exciting, not stressful. We make it straightforward: you tell us your business activity and goals, and we handle jurisdiction selection, trade name reservation, approvals and licensing from start to finish.

Which jurisdiction is right for you?

The UAE offers three main routes to incorporation, each suited to a different kind of business. Choosing correctly is the single biggest factor in your setup cost and how you can operate, so we walk you through it before you commit to anything.

  • Mainland โ€” best if you want to trade directly in the UAE local market, work with government contracts, or open multiple branches. Most activities now allow 100% foreign ownership.
  • Free Zone โ€” ideal for service businesses, online businesses, trading and startups. You get 100% ownership, simple setup and tax-efficient packages, with dozens of free zones to choose from.
  • Offshore โ€” suited to holding companies and international operations that don't need a UAE physical presence or local trading rights.

What's included when you set up with us

Every formation we handle is managed end to end. You sign where needed; we do the running around.

  • Business activity and jurisdiction advice tailored to your plan
  • Trade name reservation and initial approval
  • Drafting of incorporation documents (MOA where required)
  • Trade licence issuance and handover
  • Guidance on visas, Ejari, and corporate bank account as next steps

How long does it take?

A free zone company can often be ready in 2โ€“5 working days once your documents are in order. Mainland companies typically take 5โ€“10 working days depending on the activity and any external approvals. We manage the timeline and keep you updated at each stage.

Questions & Answers

Company Formation: your questions answered

It depends on the jurisdiction, your activity and visa count. Our free zone packages start from around AED 8,499 and mainland from around AED 18,500. We confirm one clear all-in price before you proceed.

Yes. Free zone companies have always allowed full foreign ownership, and most mainland activities now permit 100% ownership without a local sponsor. We confirm this for your specific activity.

Not always. Many free zones allow a flexi-desk or shared workspace that satisfies the licensing requirement, which keeps your costs low. Mainland setups have their own options we'll explain.

Free zone packages are usually the lower-cost entry point, especially for solo founders and service businesses. Mainland can be worth the extra cost if you need to trade directly in the local UAE market. We advise based on what actually saves you money.

Yes. We continue with visas, Emirates ID, Ejari, bank account opening, and ongoing accounting, tax and manpower as your business grows.
