Frequently Asked Questions

How long does company setup take?+

Freezone formations can complete in as little as 3 business days with VIP service. Standard timelines are 7–10 days. Mainland companies may take 2–3 weeks depending on activity and licensing authority.

Mainland vs Freezone — what is the difference?+

A Freezone company allows 100% foreign ownership with simplified setup but limits direct UAE market trading. A Mainland company lets you trade freely across the UAE and with government contracts. We advise the right structure for your goals.

Do I need to be in Dubai to set up?+

In most cases, no. We handle the entire process remotely including digital signatures. A brief visit may be needed for biometrics and Emirates ID — we coordinate timing to minimise your travel.

What visa options are available?+

As shareholder or director you are eligible for a 2-year or 5-year Investor Visa. The 10-year Golden Visa is available based on investment thresholds. Green Visas cover freelancers and skilled professionals. We assess your eligibility and handle the full application.

Is there corporate tax in Dubai?+

The UAE introduced 9% Corporate Tax (June 2023) on profits exceeding AED 375,000 (~USD 102,000). Qualifying Freezone businesses may still benefit from 0% on qualifying income. There is no personal income tax in the UAE. We handle all FTA registration and compliance.

Can you open a UAE bank account?+

Yes. Our long-standing relationships with local and international banks significantly improve approval rates and timelines. We guide you through document preparation, bank selection, and the account opening process.

What is the Second Passport program?+

Through Citizenship by Investment in St. Kitts & Nevis, Grenada, and Dominica, you can obtain a second passport in 1–3 months. Benefits include visa-free travel to 140+ countries and international banking for you and your family.

Are there hidden fees?+

No. We provide a detailed itemised proposal after a free consultation. Fees depend on jurisdiction, license type, office requirement, and visa count. Government fees are always listed separately at official rates.
