If you prefer to do business with a local partner in UAE, we will help you form a mainland business entity. We will arrange a local sponsor if you don’t already have one, and begin the process of registration and obtaining the required licenses from the Economic Department. Mainland companies enjoy a lot of freedom in operation, though there are specific regulations governing such companies. One of the important things to remember is that you must have a binding agreement with the local sponsor which details the business arrangement between you and them, so that there are no misunderstandings later.

Abu Dhabi also allows expatriate investors to take 100% ownership of their business, provided that the business activity falls in a list of over 120 prescribed categories. We can also arrange to amend your existing business license to claim total ownership of your business entity.
