Commercial, professional, industrial licences, and specialised licences like Petroleum, Bullion, and more.
A Mainland company is a business licensed by the respective Emirate’s Department of Economic Development (DED) that allows you to operate across the UAE and internationally without geographical restrictions. Unlike Free Zone companies, Mainland businesses can directly trade within the local UAE market and work on government projects.
Yes, in most business activities, 100% foreign ownership is now permitted under UAE regulations. However, certain strategic or regulated activities may still require a local Emirati partner or local service agent. The approval depends on the exact nature of your business activity and licensing authority, such as the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism.
Yes. A registered physical office space is mandatory for obtaining a Mainland license. The tenancy contract must be registered, and the office size may influence the number of visas your company can apply for. Your office location also impacts brand positioning, accessibility for clients, and long-term operational costs.
SAIFZ offers Commercial, Trading, Service, Industrial, and Holding licenses. The right license depends on your business activity. For example, trading companies dealing in import-export require a Commercial or Trading license, while light manufacturing units require an Industrial license.
In most cases, company formation in SAIFZ can be completed within a few working days, provided all documents are ready and there are no external approval requirements. The timeline may vary depending on the business activity, shareholder structure, and visa requirements.
Sharjah Airport International Free Zone, commonly known as SAIFZ, is a free zone located next to Sharjah International Airport. It is especially popular among logistics, trading, and manufacturing companies due to its strategic location and strong infrastructure. Its proximity to air cargo facilities makes it attractive for businesses dealing with import, export, and international distribution.
Ras Al Khaimah has become a strong alternative to Dubai for entrepreneurs looking for cost-effective setup options without compromising infrastructure. It offers competitive license packages, industrial facilities, and access to ports and highways.
RAK is particularly strong in manufacturing, trading, logistics, consulting, and e-commerce. Its industrial zones are well suited for production units and warehousing, while service-based companies benefit from lower operational costs compared to larger emirates.
Generally, yes. License fees, office space, and warehouse rentals in RAK are often more economical compared to Dubai. However, the decision should not be based only on cost. Market access, client base, logistics needs, and long-term scalability also matter. For some businesses, being in Dubai offers branding advantages, while RAK offers operational savings.
Jebel Ali Free Zone, commonly known as JAFZA, is one of the largest and most established free zones in the UAE. Located near Jebel Ali Port, it is strategically positioned for global trade, logistics, and industrial operations. With thousands of international companies operating there, JAFZA is often chosen by businesses that require strong infrastructure and global connectivity.
Yes. JAFZA allows 100% foreign ownership, full repatriation of profits and capital, and no currency restrictions. This makes it especially attractive for international investors and multinational companies seeking operational independence.
Yes. Depending on your license type, you may need to lease an office, warehouse, or industrial facility within JAFZA. One of JAFZA’s strengths is its advanced infrastructure, including ready-to-use warehouses and large industrial plots suitable for manufacturing and distribution businesses.
