Yes. Free zone companies have always allowed 100% foreign ownership, and since the 2021 Commercial Companies Law reforms, most mainland activities also permit full foreign ownership without a local sponsor. A small list of strategic activities still requires Emirati participation, which we confirm for your specific activity during consultation.
A free zone licence can be issued in 2 to 5 working days once documents are ready. Mainland licences typically take 1 to 2 weeks depending on external approvals. Residence visas add roughly 1 to 2 weeks after the licence is issued.
For most setups: passport copies of all shareholders, a passport-size photo, and your proposed trade names. Some activities require a business plan, CV or third-party approvals; we tell you exactly what applies before you submit anything.
Choose mainland if you will trade directly with the UAE local market, take government contracts or open physical branches. Choose a free zone if your clients are mainly international or online and you want lower entry costs. We compare both against your business model in the free consultation.
Not always. Most free zones include a flexi desk in their packages, and Dubai mainland accepts virtual office and Ejari solutions for many activities, which keeps first-year costs down.
The UAE has no personal income tax. Corporate tax applies at 9% on profits above AED 375,000, with 0% below that threshold and special regimes for qualifying free zone income. VAT at 5% applies once taxable turnover passes AED 375,000. We handle both registrations for you.
