Starting a business in the UAE comes with its own set of challenges, but with the right expertise, these obstacles can be overcome smoothly. Here’s how we address common hurdles entrepreneurs face:
1. Select Your Business Name
Your business name should be unique, compliant with UAE regulations, and reflective of your brand identity.
2. Choose Your Legal Structure
Decide the legal framework of your company (e.g., LLC, sole proprietorship) based on your business goals and responsibilities.
3. Define Your Business Activities
List all intended business activities (up to 10 per license). Accuracy is key for regulatory approval.
4. Submit Required Documents
Provide the necessary documentation, such as passport copies, ownership details, and tenancy agreements.
5. Pay the Licensing Fees
The cost of a commercial trade license varies depending on your business activities and legal structure. Contact us for a detailed breakdown.
The cost of getting a commercial license in Dubai varies based on the particular type of business and the criteria of each applicant. To assist you in understanding the overall cost, we may provide you a summary of the general fees.
It is essential to remember that the amounts listed only pay for the trade license’s formal expenditures. They must cover the entire business creation procedure in Dubai.
To avoid fines or interruptions in operations, ensure your license is renewed before it expires. Steps for Renewal:
Step-1: Check Your Tenancy Contract
Ensure it is valid for at least one month beyond your license expiration.
Step 2: Submit Your Renewal Application
File the renewal request with DED, accompanied by the required documents.
