Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about starting a business in Dubai.

What is the difference between mainland and free zone?
A mainland company operates under the DED and can trade anywhere in the UAE without restrictions. A free zone company operates within a specific free zone and typically needs a local distributor to trade on the mainland. Free zones offer benefits like simplified setup and specific tax advantages.
Can foreigners own 100% of a company in Dubai?
Yes. As of 2020, the UAE allows 100% foreign ownership for most business activities on the mainland. Free zones have always allowed full foreign ownership. Some activities may still require a local service agent.
How long does it take to set up a company?
Free zone companies can be set up in as little as 2-3 business days. Mainland companies typically take 5-10 business days depending on the activity and approvals required. We handle the entire process for you.
Do I need to be physically present in Dubai?
Many free zones allow remote company setup without requiring physical presence. However, you will need to visit the UAE for visa processing and bank account opening in most cases. We can guide you on what can be done remotely.
What documents do I need to start?
Typically you need a passport copy, passport-size photos, proof of address, and a business plan or activity description. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and activity. We provide a complete checklist during your free consultation.
