Empowering Success: Vision Meets Expertise
You need to select the business activity that you want your business to indulge in. The category that the business falls in will be determined by the activity chosen by you. Categories can be tourism, industrial, commercial and others. All types of activities have different laws to regulate them.
Your business can be given one of the many different legal forms and laws will be applied on your business accordingly. This makes process and regulations smooth for the business community in Dubai. You have to decide whether your business is going to be a sole proprietorship, a limited liability company or any other. All legal forms have advantages and disadvantages and it is only an expert that can provide you with an insight on the legalities.
The next step is to give a name to your business. Copyright laws are strict in the UAE and there is no compromise on intellectual property. The business has to be reserved by paying a fee to the relevant authorities. The name reservation is temporary unless the fees charged for name registration are paid within 3 days.
The No Objection Certificate has to be received from the DED, which is the initial permission to continue with business development and acquiring a business license. The initial approval is required to obtain the trade license; however, this does not mean that you can run your business. There are a few more steps before you can operate a business.
A Memorandum of Association may also need to be signed by you depending on the legal form of your business. The memorandum is required for corporate or local service agent. Because, this is the legal requirement for some types of business types in Dubai and the UAE as a whole. Without the local service agent, foreigners no longer required the assistance of local sponsors to start their businesses in Dubai.
Your business in Dubai has to have a physical existence. The rent agreement that you sign with building or place owner will also be attested by the Ejari. Initial approval and other important documents will be required by Real Estate Regulatory Authority. The attested agreement will later be required for issuance of trade license as well.
Sometimes, licensing approvals are required by other government departments & local & federal level as well. This depends on the area of jurisdiction of a government department within which the business activity falls. If you are setting up a new restaurant, the food department might also need to be approached for approvals before you can start your operations. Once you have the required approvals from all the government departments involved and have received the trade license, your business setup process is complete.
The cost of company registration depends on the different fees that regulatory authorities charge at different steps of the process. Business owners have to pay these dues within a certain time for completing every step. Otherwise, they have to repeat the specific step. The approximate cost of company registration in Dubai ranges from AED 10,000 to 30,000. Cost varies due to the rules & regulations of the UAE and Dubai governments. Also, they take into account the business dynamics. Dubai company registration cost includes all charges that have to be paid for attestations and all processing fees. Some of the costs involved in the process are yearly. While, some costs are to be incurred only one time.
