Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What are the primary distinctions between mainland and free zone company formations in the UAE?

Mainland companies enable you to conduct business throughout the UAE market and internationally without limitations. They receive their licenses from the Department of Economic Development (DED) of the relevant emirate. Conversely, free zone companies are restricted to operating solely within their assigned free zone or internationally and are licensed by the corresponding Free Zone Authority. Free zones provide advantages such as 100% foreign ownership and tax exemptions.

Is it necessary to have a local sponsor to establish a mainland company?

Previously, it was required for mainland companies to have a UAE national sponsor who would hold 51% of the ownership. However, recent regulations now permit 100% foreign ownership in various business activities, thereby removing the necessity for a local sponsor in these instances.

Is it compulsory to have a physical office space for mainland companies?

Indeed, securing office space is a compulsory requirement for the establishment of a mainland company in Dubai. Dahhan Business Services is available to assist in organizing the tenancy contract and finding a location that aligns with your licensing requirements.

What advantages does establishing a company in a UAE free zone provide?

Free zones present numerous benefits, such as complete foreign ownership, tax exemptions, customs duty advantages, absence of currency restrictions, and a favorable business climate. They are specifically designed to entice foreign investors by offering an ideal business setting.

Is it possible to operate my free zone company outside of the free zone?

Typically, free zone companies are restricted to conducting business within the free zone or on an international scale. To engage in business within the UAE mainland, it is necessary to appoint a local distributor or set up a branch office in the mainland.

What is the duration required to establish a free zone company?

The time required for setup can differ based on the selected free zone and the nature of the business activity. Nevertheless, certain free zones provide expedited services, enabling company formation in as little as 2 hours.
