Step-by-Step Setup Process
Start by selecting a Free Zone that aligns with your business objectives, industry type, and target market. Each Free Zone in the UAE offers unique advantages, such as sector-specific benefits, cost-effective packages, and visa options. Define your primary business activity—whether it’s trading, services, or manufacturing—to ensure regulatory alignment from the start.
Choose a unique and appropriate name for your business that complies with the UAE’s naming guidelines. Avoid offensive or religious terms and ensure the name reflects your business activity. Once finalized, the name must be submitted for approval to the relevant Free Zone authority.
Prepare and submit the required documents along with your application to the chosen Free Zone authority. This typically includes passport copies, business plan (if needed), and the application form. Ensuring accuracy and completeness speeds up the approval process.
Once your application is approved, proceed to pay the applicable license and registration fees. The cost may vary depending on the Free Zone, type of license, and additional services selected. Prompt payment ensures timely issuance of your business license.
After completing the payment, your business license will be issued by the Free Zone authority. With this license in hand, you are officially authorized to operate your company within the UAE Free Zone and can proceed with opening a bank account, applying for visas, and starting business activities.
