Is a professional corporation able to have whole ownership?

 

The ability to own 100% of your Dubai-based firm is the most beneficial feature of having a DED professional license.

You will simply need to enter into a contract with a local service agent, to whom an annual fee is paid, in order to operate under a professional license. You still own exclusive ownership, though. All government-related procedures in Dubai require businesses with professional licenses to have a local agent.
