Purpose and business model

What would you like to set up?Starting a new company, opening a branch and expanding an existing business need different checks.

Where is the existing company licensed?A Dubai free-zone operating permit is not automatically a route for a company from another emirate.

What will the business actually do?Describe your products, services and revenue model. An activity name alone does not confirm permission for your planned operations. Do not enter names, passport numbers or other personal details.

Which industry best fits your business?This helps us choose the next questions. It does not decide which authority must approve your business.

What will customers pay you for?We ask different questions depending on whether you sell goods, provide services or connect buyers with providers.

Delivery and responsibility

Whose affairs will the company handle?Coordinating one family, holding assets and managing outside clients are different activities.

Where are the intended assets?Where the assets are and what they are affect the company options. Registering a company does not by itself confirm asset ownership or tax treatment.

Who delivers the service or product?Even if you arrange services through other providers, your company may still need specific licences or approvals.

Where are your main customers?We also need to check where you work and where goods are delivered, not just where your customers are.

Where will the work or delivery take place?An online business may still need premises, storage or permission to work at customers’ sites.

What work will your company do?Choose the work closest to what you plan to do. This helps us ask the right questions; it does not confirm which licence you need.

Where will you buy your goods?Selling online does not remove import, customs or product approval requirements. We need to know who brings the goods into the UAE.

Who stores the goods and sends orders?Who owns, stores and sends the goods matters. You still need permission to sell them.
