The cheapest way to be legally in business in the UAE.

A licensed company covering up to five publishing or e-commerce activities under one trade license, with full company registration included. The same 100% foreign ownership and worldwide invoicing rights as any full-price setup, just at a lower entry cost. Add a residence visa later without re-forming the company.

Not for you if:

Existing clients only — your side business, licensed, all in.

Not for you if:

One person, one activity — priced like a permit, but a real licensed company you can invoice, bank and take a residence visa under.

Not for you if:

Invoice UAE mainland customers without buying a mainland company.

Not for you if:

A company with a Dubai address on the license itself: your registered activities, up to five combined across different categories, plus full company registration, all under one roof. 100% foreign ownership and worldwide invoicing, no local partner and no office lease required. Add a residence visa later without re-forming the company.

Not for you if:

The whole chain: establishment card, entry permit, medical, Emirates ID. We name the emirate before you pay.

Not for you if:

A Sharjah license with one residence visa, whole chain included.

Not for you if:

A fully licensed company that can invoice anyone in the UAE, including government, rent a real office, and sell directly to walk-in customers. 100% foreign ownership applies to most activities, each licensed individually rather than bundled together. Quoted per activity and premises, since the office lease is what actually drives the cost.
