UAE company formation · visas · banking · relocation
Set up in Dubai. Done properly.
Set up, expand or relocate across the UAE, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, RAK and beyond. Company formation, visas, banking and relocation for entrepreneurs and investors building in the region, from anywhere in the world.
Three ways to set up. We'll tell you which is yours.
Full ownership and a quick route to a licence. Best for services, trading and running a business from anywhere.
Trade directly inside the UAE market and take on government and local contracts, with the widest list of activities.
A holding and asset-protection vehicle rather than a trading company. No visas, but powerful for structure and IP.
The right one depends on what you do and who you sell to. Find your structure →

Trade name and business activity selection: why getting them wrong is expensive
Wrong trade name or business activity on your UAE licence forces an amendment or full restart, both cost time and money. Here's what trips founders up and how to avoid it.
- Company Formation
The costly mistakes people make setting up a UAE company
The most expensive UAE company setup errors, wrong jurisdiction, weak substance, no bank account. The mistake most guides miss: choosing a freezone that can't serve your actual customers.

Setting up a UAE company remotely: what you can do from abroad, and what needs you here
