What to Know About Company Formation in Dubai

If you are looking for company formation, the following factors will show you why Dubai is the best place:

Company Formation Options

If you are a foreign investor, you can start your business in Dubai as a branch, representative office, or registered company, or appoint a commercial agent to handle sales in the UAE or for export.

Free Zones

New companies can operate from one of the around 40 Free Zones in the UAE. These zones are special areas established to boost economic activity. 

Business Entities

The UAE Commercial Companies Law (CCL) allows foreign investors to set up joint stock companies (JSC), Limited Liability Companies (LLC), unincorporated joint ventures, and branch offices. This law does not apply to Free Zone companies.

Foreign Ownership Changes

As of June 1, 2021, the UAE Commercial Companies Law allows 100% foreign ownership companies established in the country. This eliminated the need for a local partner or sponsor to hold a share of at least 51%. It applies with certain approvals required depending on the company's activities.
