FAQ
Direct answers to common questions
How do I register a company in Dubai mainland?
You choose eligible activities, reserve a trade name, complete company registration for a Dubai mainland LLC (or suitable legal form), arrange an office that meets Ejari rules, and obtain your Dubai mainland license. EmirHub maps each step to your activity — including general trading, technical services, contracting and other license types — and handles the process with you.
How long does company formation in Dubai take?
Timelines vary by jurisdiction, activity and approvals. Many straightforward mainland or free zone setups complete in roughly one to two weeks once documents are ready; activity-specific approvals can take longer. EmirHub confirms a realistic timeline for your case before you proceed.
Can foreigners own 100% of a Dubai mainland company?
Yes. Foreign investors can have 100% ownership for many eligible activities under the UAE’s current ownership framework. Exact requirements depend on the business activity and applicable approvals.
Do I need a physical office for a mainland company?
Mainland setups generally require an office arrangement that satisfies Ejari and licensing rules. Free zones often offer flexi-desk or virtual office options. We help you choose what your activity and visa plan actually need.
What documents are required to start business setup in Dubai?
Typically passport copies, proposed activities, and shareholder details. Additional documents may be required for regulated activities such as certain trading, contracting or technical services licenses. We provide a case-specific checklist after the initial consultation.
How much does business setup or a mainland license cost?
Costs depend on activity, jurisdiction, office requirements and visa allocation — whether you need a general trading license, technical services license, or another Dubai mainland license. EmirHub provides an itemized estimate before you commit — government fees and service fees, clearly separated.
