The ideal business structure depends on your business activities, ownership preferences, and whether you plan to operate in the UAE mainland or a free zone. Our consultants will assess your needs and guide you in choosing the best option, whether it’s a mainland company, free zone entity, or offshore setup.
The timeline varies depending on the type of business and location. Free zone companies can be set up in as little as a few days, while mainland businesses may take a few weeks due to additional approvals and registrations. Our team will give you an accurate timeline based on your specific requirements.
Costs can vary widely depending on the jurisdiction, type of license, and office space required. We provide a transparent breakdown of all associated costs, including government fees, licenses, visas, and office solutions, ensuring no hidden surprises.
For mainland businesses, a local sponsor or service agent is required for most business structures. However, in free zones, 100% foreign ownership is allowed. We offer trusted sponsorship solutions tailored to your needs.
Yes, free zones offer flexibility for remote operations. Offshore companies also allow for international business activities without the need for a physical office in the UAE. We can help you choose the best option based on your business model.
