HOW TO SET UP A MAINLAND COMPANY IN UAE
Your Complete Guide to Business Setup in Mainland
1. Choose Your Business Activity
Decide on the sector you’ll operate in—there are 2,000+ permitted activities listed by the Department of Economic Development (DED), including trading, manufacturing, hospitality, and more.
2. Select Your Business Location
Pick a location based on your industry needs, logistics, and budget. Mainland businesses can operate anywhere in the UAE and can open multiple branches.
3. Define Your Legal Structure
Choose the appropriate structure—most commercial and industrial businesses form a Limited Liability Company (LLC), while professional services can be 100% foreign-owned.
4. Name Your Company
Select a compliant trade name—no offensive terms, religious references, or abbreviations. Names must follow UAE naming conventions and be phonetically translatable.
5. Apply for Your Business Registration
Submit your application to the DED with the required documents, including shareholder details, sponsor agreements, and ownership percentages.
6. Secure Office Space
Choose between serviced offices, pre-fitted spaces, or shell-and-core units depending on your needs and budget. Office space is also tied to your visa quota.
7. Apply for Residency
Apply for your own as well as for your employees and dependents. The quota usually depends on your office size.
8. Work with a Setup Consultant
Partnering with a UAE-based consultant simplifies the process, ensures compliance, and helps align your setup with your business goals.
