UAE Professional License

Start a Professional Company in Dubai

How to start a Professional Company in Dubai?

To open a professional firm in the UAE, you need to acquire a professional license in Dubai for your business. A professional license is necessary for the provision of non-physical services that require physical talent, or intellectual abilities. For example, consultancy, bookkeeping, graphic designing, etc.

Professional license is issued to individual(s) or an LLC to practice any profession in which the business relies on intellectual skills and/or physical work. Also, the business activities does not only involve monetary investments alone. Now foreign investors can own 100% share of a mainland professional company in Dubai.

There is no more requirement of a UAE national to hold the 51% share of the LLC professional company. Whereas, as per Article 3 of the legal document of memorandum, the duties and obligations of the second party towards the first party and others are limited to extending the legal experience of an ordinary man in order to enable the first party to carry out its activity in the emirate of Dubai. For instance, to assist in obtaining and renewing the professional license and to assist in obtaining the necessary employment visas and renewing the same with the ministry of labour and social affairs and other governmental and semi-governmental departments and bodies.

Differences between Professional Company and Civil Company

What are differences between Professional Company and Civil Company?

A professional company enables a licensed professional to conduct practice as a legal entity, while giving liability protection and tax benefits.

Overview of a Professional License in Dubai

Benefits of a Professional Company in Dubai

Which are advantages of a Professional Company in Dubai? Here are the top rewards of a professional company in Dubai.

An individual establishment or a civil works company is formed under the UAE Civil Code. This law restricts them to perform only “non-commercial” or civil activities.
Any trade-related activity is not allowed under professional license in Dubai.
Now foreigners can have 100% ownership of the business.
They no longer require the assistance of the local sponsors to start their businesses in Dubai with shares.
However, they can onboard a local agent without any shareholding rights, and with no interference in the business. A local agent can smoothly perform liaison activities in different regulatory departments on a service model.
Depending on the business activity, professional firm can be an LLC (limited liability company).
A foreign company can become a partner in Civil Company, if it reflects the same business activity as the parent company.

I am extremely happy with Khyati. She supported me from the very beginning right through to the end, always with professionalism, dedication, and no hesitation. She was consistently available whenever I needed her, even on her days off. I truly can’t thank her enough for all the help she provided with my startup company and throughout the entire process.
