Choose your business structure, select a trade name, get initial approval, secure licenses, lease office space, register with authorities, open a corporate bank account and get visas. Further processes and requirements vary for mainland and free zones so professional guidance with local expertise is highly recommended.
The best location depends on your business activity and goals. Mainland offers wider market access, while free zones focus on specific industries and provide various tax perks. Top areas include Business Bay, DIFC, Sheikh Zayed Road (for corporates) and DMCC, Dubai Silicon Oasis or Dubai Internet City for startups and sector-specific ventures.
Mainland businesses have unrestricted access to the UAE market but may face ownership rules and require local sponsors for some activities. Free zones offer 100% foreign ownership, easy setup and sector-specific infrastructure but limit trade within the local UAE market.
Dubai licenses include commercial (trading), professional (services and consulting), industrial (manufacturing) and tourism (travel/hospitality). Freelance and offshore licenses are also options, each tailored to business activity and operational scope.
Requirements include reserving your tradename, registering the company, applying for a business license, leasing office space (Ejari registration), opening a bank account, gaining government approvals, and complying with UAE labor, tax and corporate law. Details vary by activity and jurisdiction (mainland or free zone).
