Company setup in Dubai

Right start is essential for a Perfect Business”

UAE provides a reputable and international Platform for all kind of businesses. Setting up in the UAE is an excellent choice because of the regulatory regime and the geographical time belt.

Dubai has created a business environment that is well regulated without being unduly restrictive and offers operating conditions that are amongst the most liberal and attractive in the region.

The UAE economy is divided between the onshore sector, dominated by local business interests, with restrictions on foreign ownership, and the offshore sector that consists of several Free zones.

Company formation in UAE comes with several rules and regulations.

Companies registered in the UAE Mainland require a Local Sponsor (Individual/Corporate) be Mandatory Appointed.

There has been a perplexity regarding the provisions used in connection with the Local Sponsor (Emirati), a compulsory limitations when establishing a business outside the free zones in the United Arab Emirates (Main Land). Generally common people mix two terminologies into one “sponsor” without a proper difference, which creates the impression that there is always an Emirati in full control of the business.

The word “Sponsor” is neither a profession title or position nor a job description of the involved Emirati. However, it can be considered a status that a Local Partner or Local Service Agent gains after establishing a company or after being appointed as a Service Agent for a certain entity. Whether a Local Partner or a Local Service Agent is required depends on the kind of activity and the company structure that the entity will have.

In Dubai, trading and industrial activities require a Local Partner (who holds 51% of the company shares) and are usually structured as a Limited Liability Company (LLC). However, a professional license can be a Sole establishment, civil company or LLC company too.

Professional companies may be 100% foreign owned. However, it is necessary to appoint a local Emirati Service Agent from the same Emirate. According to Dubai rules on licensing professionals in order to establish a business which practices services or professional activities, the business will be formed as a “Sole Establishment or Civil Company”. Most of the services related to professional activities require a professional license.

A Local Service Agent has to be appointed while 100% of the company shares can be owned by foreigners. The Local Service Agent will deal with the government officials and Ministries on behalf of the company and facilitates the renewal process.

Local service agent and local partner from the UAE are reliable and honest. And they can be bound in side agreement and separate POA can be taken by them. With a Local Partner, it is common to arrange side agreements that redefine the conditions between the parties in favor of the actual owners/managers of the company.
