Cases We Handle In The UAE
Golden Visa (10-Year)
Long-term residency for investors, entrepreneurs, and skilled professionals. Routes include AED 2M property, business investment, or a qualifying salary (AED 30,000+/month) with a degree.
Free Zone Company Setup
Form a company in one of 40+ free zones with 100% foreign ownership. Comes with residency visas. Costs and activities vary widely by zone — choosing the right one matters.
Mainland Company Setup
Set up a company licensed to trade across the UAE market. Now allows full foreign ownership for most activities. Different compliance than free zones.
Corporate Tax & VAT
9% corporate tax applies above AED 375,000 (since 2023). Free Zone companies may qualify for 0% under conditions. VAT registration and ongoing compliance often required.
Residency & Emirates ID
Residence visa, medical, biometrics, and Emirates ID — required to live, open a bank account, and sign contracts. Family sponsorship available for spouse and children.
Bank Account Opening
Opening a personal or corporate UAE bank account. Notoriously document-heavy and slow without guidance. Requires residency, Emirates ID, and (for companies) proper structuring.
Where We Work In The UAE
Dubai
The main expat magnet. Global business hub, zero income tax, world-class infrastructure. Popular with entrepreneurs, professionals, and investors. Huge choice of free zones and freehold property areas.
Abu Dhabi
The capital. Strong in finance, energy, and government. Slightly calmer than Dubai, with its own free zones (e.g. ADGM) and a growing expat professional community.
Sharjah
More affordable, next to Dubai. Popular with families commuting into Dubai. Lower rents and its own competitive free zones for company setup.
Ras Al Khaimah
Fast-growing and cost-effective for company formation (RAKEZ). Increasingly popular for setups that don't require a Dubai address. Relaxed lifestyle and lower costs.
