You can choose from Mainland, Free Zone, and Offshore company structures, depending on your business activity, ownership preferences, and target market.

For Mainland companies, a local sponsor may be required for certain business activities. However, many sectors now allow 100% foreign ownership.

Common documents include passport copies, visa copies (if applicable), passport-size photos, business plan (for some activities), and application forms.

The cost varies based on the business type, license, and jurisdiction (Mainland or Free Zone). It typically starts from a few thousand AED.
