Helping businesses build
their future in the UAE
From first-time founders to established international groups, we handle the structuring, licensing and compliance that turn UAE ambitions into operating companies.
Inbound Investment
International Investors
You will not need to fly in for most of it. We handle the power of attorney, remote signing and the bank introduction, and we tell you which banks are realistic for your profile before you apply.
New Ventures
Entrepreneurs
First licence, first visa, first bank account. We keep the structure simple so you are not paying for an office or for activities you do not need yet.
Growth & Operations
Small & Medium Businesses
Renewals, new staff visas, MOHRE and GDRFA filings. We track your expiry dates so a licence or a visa never lapses while you are busy running the business.
Multi-Entity Structures
Corporate Expansion
Branch offices, subsidiaries and multi entity structures. We map which emirate and which authority fits before you commit to a jurisdiction that is awkward to leave.
Independent Practice
Consultants & Professionals
A professional licence, one investor visa, no office. Usually the cheapest legitimate way to operate in Dubai, and often all a solo consultant actually needs.
Import & Export
Trading Companies
General trading or a specific activity list, customs code, VAT registration and Ejari or warehouse. We tell you which activities you can legally combine on one licence.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers about Dubai company formation, PRO services, visas, and business setup.
A Dubai mainland instant licence starts around AED 15,000 to 20,000, but it is licence only and does not include visa eligibility. If you need visas you need at least a virtual office. An investor visa adds AED 4,000 and an employee visa AED 7,500 each. Free zones can start lower. Use the two calculators on this page for a figure on your own setup, then ask us to put it in writing.
A mainland licence lets you trade directly anywhere in the UAE and bid for government work. A free zone licence is cheaper and faster, but you reach the local market through a distributor or an agent. If your customers are UAE businesses and consumers, go mainland. If your customers are overseas, go free zone.
Yes in free zones, and yes in mainland for almost every activity. Only a small number of activities still require an Emirati partner. We check your exact activity code before you pay anything.
A mainland instant licence can be issued in a single day. Other mainland licences usually run 5 to 10 working days depending on approvals, and a free zone licence is often issued in 2 to 5 working days once your documents are complete. Visas add roughly 10 to 15 working days after the licence, including the medical and Emirates ID.
Yes. We prepare the file, introduce you to the bank and sit through the compliance questions with you. We will also tell you honestly when your activity or profile makes approval unlikely at a particular bank, so you do not lose weeks on a rejection.
Yes, and it is what we are best known for. Investor, employment and family visas, Tasheel and GDRFA submissions, medicals, Emirates ID, renewals and cancellations. Our founder worked inside this process as a typist and then a Visa Officer before starting the company.
