Let us know your primary reason so we can tailor your setup recommendations accordingly.

Choose your business activity to start your business setup cost estimate

Choose the business activity that you would like to carry out in the UAE. Aside from helping you identify the location and licence that best suits your company, this will also help you get a better estimate of the cost of your company setup.

This will have the biggest impact on your final proposal, but is also required based on your choice of activity and whether you need to be based in the mainland or not.

How many owners/shareholders will your company have?

The number of owners/shareholders your company will have can help in identifying the most suitable legal structure for your company, as well as the number of residence visas you will require.

In addition to residence visas for your shareholders, you can apply for residence visas for your employees and family members.
