    My wife engaged KWS Middle East in October 2025 to assist with a UAE Golden Visa application and paid AED 12,500 upfront.

    She was subsequently informed that the application had not been approved. The signed agreement states that where approval is not obtained, the amount paid will be refunded subject to consultancy charges of up to AED 3,000.

    Despite requesting her refund for more than five months and following up repeatedly, the matter remains unresolved. No satisfactory explanation has been provided as to why the refund clause in the agreement does not apply.

    After raising concerns publicly due to the lack of progress, she was informed that her comments could amount to a criminal offence under UAE law and was subsequently blocked on social media. Having reviewed the agreement and sought legal guidance, we do not accept that a customer raising a genuine contractual dispute and seeking a refund they believe is due under a signed agreement is acting improperly.

    We remain willing to update this review if KWS resolves the matter professionally and in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

    What truly stood out was the level of support beyond the basic setup — including guidance and preparation for the subsequent phases of opening and operating a branch in the Emirates. This gave us clarity, confidence, and strategic direction moving forward.

    I strongly recommend Khyati and KWS Middle East to anyone seeking reliable, transparent, and well-organized support for company formation in the UAE.

    I had the pleasure of working with Khyati from KWS Middle East during the process of setting up our company structure and preparing for the next stages of expanding into the UAE.

    Her approach was highly professional from start to finish. She dedicated significant time to understanding our business model, explaining each step of the procedure clearly, and ensuring we were fully prepared for every stage of the registration process. Communication was precise, structured, and always proactive.

    What truly stood out was the level of support beyond the basic setup — including guidance and preparation for the subsequent phases of opening and operating a branch in the Emirates. This gave us clarity, confidence, and strategic direction moving forward.
