Businesses evolve — shareholders join or leave, activities expand, capital changes, managers are replaced. A DMCC company amendment updates your official records at the free zone so your licence always reflects reality. Our JLT team files amendments on the DMCC portal cleanly and quickly.

Common DMCC amendments

  • Share transfer — adding, removing or changing shareholders
  • Activity change — adding or removing licensed activities
  • Capital change — increasing or decreasing share capital
  • Manager / director change
  • Company name change
  • Registered address / office change

What each amendment needs

Most amendments require a board/shareholder resolution, updated KYC for any new party, and amended constitutional documents. Share transfers and capital changes usually need notarised or attested paperwork; we prepare the full set and handle notarisation.

Amendments are often done together with your annual licence renewal to save cost — we\'ll tell you when that makes sense.

Timeline & cost

Simple amendments (manager change, adding an activity) are typically processed within a few working days. Share transfers and capital changes take longer due to documentation and attestation. Government fees vary by amendment type; we quote a fixed all-in figure before starting.

Amendments are part of keeping a DMCC business setup compliant over its life. Ongoing government paperwork also runs through our DMCC PRO services desk.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DMCC company amendment?
It is the official update of your company records at DMCC — such as a share transfer, activity change, capital change or new manager — so your licence reflects the current structure.
How do I transfer shares in a DMCC company?
A share transfer needs a shareholder resolution, updated KYC for the incoming party and amended constitutional documents, usually notarised. We prepare and file the full set on the DMCC portal.
How long does a DMCC amendment take?
Simple changes like a manager update or added activity take a few working days. Share transfers and capital changes take longer due to attestation. We give a timeline up front.
Can I add a new activity to my DMCC licence?
Yes. We check the activity is compatible with your licence type, file the amendment and update your licence, often alongside your annual renewal to save cost.
