Company setup in Dubai attracts entrepreneurs from around the world. The right choice depends on where your customers are, what you sell and how many visas you need.
Mainland or Free Zone?
Mainland suits businesses selling to UAE customers directly. Free Zones offer simpler setup and are popular for services and international trade.
What drives the cost
- Licence type and number of activities
- Office or flexi-desk requirement
- Number of visas
- Approvals required for regulated activities
- Renewal and PRO fees
Ask before you sign
Request a written breakdown covering licence, registration, visa, medical, Emirates ID, and annual renewal costs so there are no surprises.
After the licence
Plan for bank account opening, VAT and corporate tax registration, and accounting from day one.
