Let’s talk about opening your business in the UAE

Speak to the same person from the first call onwards — plainly, no pressure. We start with what you’re building, then set out what the UAE will and won’t do for it. At Start Business Services we would rather tell you on that first call that the UAE is wrong for what you are doing than take the fee and let you find out a year in.

“My wife and I decided to close our business in Australia and relocate to Dubai to reopen it. This all happened on very short notice, and I can honestly say we couldn’t have managed everything without Gareth and his team.”

That’s fine, and here is where to start. I always tell people to shop around and get a few quotes before they pick a firm.

  • Want a sense of the numbers? Our IFZA free zone page lists our fees line by line for a one-person company, for the first year and the years after. For a mainland company, our LLC page gives the all-in range. Whatever you set up, you get the costs itemised in writing before you commit to anything.
  • Want to know what happens, step by step? Our company setup process page walks through each stage, from the licence to the bank account.
  • Want to see how it has gone for other owners? Our case studies set out real situations, the call we made and what happened.
  • Is your first question about tax back home? Speak to your own accountant or tax adviser first. We don’t give tax advice, and I’ll always send you back to them for that part.
