FAQs

Can I open a company in UAE / Dubai if I’m not a UAE resident?

Yes! In fact, most of our clients are non-residents. We specialize in remote company formation in the UAE, with 90% of the process completed online. You’ll only need one short visit (typically 5–7 days) to finalize formalities.

Start on a tourist visa and switch to investor residency once your setup is complete.

Do I need a local sponsor for a Mainland company?

No. Thanks to recent legal reforms, most Mainland company formations in Dubai allow 100% foreign ownership including sectors like general trading, consulting, tech, and F&B.

Only a few regulated industries still require a local partner, and we’ll advise you case by case.

What Is the Business Setup Cost in Dubai Mainland?

It depends on your business activity, legal structure, and whether you need extras like visas or trademark registration.

You’ll get a fully transparent, itemized quote after your free consultation with no hidden charges.

How can I open a Dubai branch of my existing company?

It’s simple. Provide your parent company’s attested documents, declare the branch’s activity, and set a capital structure. Your brand identity stays intact, while gaining access to UAE banking, licensing, and operations.

Are there special procedures or facilities for setting up a company in the UAE?

Yes. Company formation in the UAE is straightforward and streamlined for all investors, with some requirements varying by business activity. Generally, you will need a valid passport, personal photos, and recent proof of residence. For certain specialized activities, attested certificates or proof of professional experience may also be required.

A fully integrated business center, from consultation to business process in the UAE, with professionalism and speed. They issue commercial licenses, both domestic and free zone, at competitive prices compared to other centers I've consulted. Excellent for Gulf citizens, regardless of the nationality of the investor or trader. They offer products and services other than commercial licenses. Based on personal experience, I recommend Absher to anyone wishing to enter the UAE market. I thank all the employees at Absher for their efforts to facilitate customer transactions with professionalism and integrity.

Dealing with Absher was one of the best experiences I had in the UAE. They handled everything after the agreed-upon amount was paid, completing all the procedures from establishing a company to reserving a virtual office and location, to completing the Emirates ID issuance process.

They are excellent. I am currently in discussions with Absher to collaborate with them on the legal matters of the company established through them and to follow up on the status of the contracts and review them.

Thanks to Mr. Magdy, Ms. Samar, and Ms. Tabarak. They followed up every step of the way by creating a WhatsApp group to complete the necessary procedures.
