Steps to open a Dubai Mainland License
Step 1:
The initial step involves registering your company name with DED, where we verify its availability and propose an alternative if it’s already taken. If the chosen name is non-Arabic, an additional AED 2000 fee is incurred by DED.
Step 2:
The second step entails obtaining activity approval from DED, and for both the first and second steps, shareholder presence is unnecessary; only their passport and visa copies are required. Additionally, approvals from external regulatory bodies, if applicable to your activity, will also be facilitated by us.
Step 3:
The Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document delineating the company’s constitution, objectives, and rules governing shareholder relationships, playing a crucial role in Dubai’s company formation process by establishing a framework for operations and governance. All shareholders listed on the license must sign the MOA, either in person or remotely.
Step 4:
In accordance with DED regulations, establishing a company requires to submit proof of office address by showing the Ejari document (tenancy contract). Submission of this document to the DED is a necessary step in the process. We can use a Virtual Office for the same purpose as well. However, a new government initiative now allows companies to operate without an office space in the first year.
Payment Voucher & Trade License
Upon submission of the documents, the DED issues a payment voucher specifying the required license fee for obtaining the Trade License. Upon payment, the Trade License is then issued.
