🚀 Start Your Business Journey in the UAE

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is one of the world’s most dynamic business hubs, attracting entrepreneurs, investors, and multinational corporations. With zero income tax, a strategic location, and investor-friendly policies, the UAE offers unparalleled opportunities for business growth.

At Concept Advocates, we provide end-to-end legal support for company incorporation across Free Zones, Mainland, and Offshore jurisdictions in the UAE.

📝 Types of Company Formation Structures in UAE

1. Mainland Company (LLC)

Ideal for businesses targeting the UAE local market. Allows direct trade across the UAE and eligibility for government contracts.

2. Free Zone Company

Best for foreign investors seeking 100% ownership, simplified licensing, and tax exemptions. Popular zones include Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), JAFZA, and Sharjah Media City (Shams).

3. Offshore Company

Used for asset protection, international trade, or holding companies. Not permitted to operate within the UAE directly.

✅ FAQ – Company Formation & Corporate Legal Services in UAE

❓ What are the steps to register a company in the UAE?

The general steps include:


  1. Choosing the jurisdiction (Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore)

  2. Reserving a trade name and getting initial approvals

  3. Drafting legal documents (MOA/AOA, shareholder agreements)

  4. Submitting the application to relevant authorities

  5. Licensing, visa processing, and opening a corporate bank account

We manage all steps on your behalf for a smooth setup.

❓ Can foreigners own 100% of a UAE company?

Yes. In Free Zones, 100% foreign ownership is permitted. In the Mainland, 100% ownership is allowed for many activities under recent reforms, though some activities still require a local Emirati partner.

❓ How long does it take to set up a company in the UAE?

Depending on the jurisdiction and business activity, the process can take 3–10 working days, provided all documents are in order.

❓ What is the cost of incorporating a business in the UAE?

Costs vary based on location, type of business license (commercial, professional, industrial), and visa requirements. Setup can start from AED 5,000 for Free Zone options.

❓ Do I need a local sponsor for a Mainland company?

For some regulated or professional licenses, a local service agent or sponsor may be required. However, 100% expat ownership is available for many business activities under the new law.

❓ What legal documents are required for company formation?

Required documents typically include:


  • Passport copies of shareholders and managers

  • UAE visa or entry stamp

  • No Objection Certificate (NOC), if applicable

  • Proof of address

  • Memorandum of Association

  • Application forms

❓ Can Concept Advocates help with ongoing corporate compliance?
