Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about setting up your business? We have answers.

How much does it cost to set up a business in the UAE?
Costs vary depending on whether you choose a Free Zone or Mainland jurisdiction, office space requirements, and total residence visas needed. Use our quick calculator above to get a tailored estimate.
What is the difference between Free Zone and Mainland?
Free Zones offer 100% foreign ownership, zero personal taxes, and customized industry hubs. Mainland licenses allow direct trading inside the local UAE market and taking on UAE government contracts.
How long does the setup process take?
Initial trade licenses can be issued in as fast as 3 to 7 working days, depending on authority approvals and documentation readiness.
Can I set up a business without living in the UAE?
Yes! Many jurisdictions allow remote setup. However, you will need to travel briefly to the UAE to complete medical checks and biometric scans for your residence visa.
