Dubai, with its remarkable blend of ancient culture and futuristic innovation, has positioned itself as an epicenter for global entrepreneurs. Nestled between the East and West, it offers an array of opportunities for business enthusiasts. The city’s strategic location, complemented by its investor-centric policies and state-of-the-art infrastructure, makes it a magnet for business professionals. Among the plethora of opportunities, the consultancy sector stands out. If you’re an expert aiming to share insights and knowledge, here’s how you can establish yourself in Dubai via the consultant visa Dubai route, leveraging the potential of the trade license and investor visa to bolster your consultancy career.

Laying the Foundation with a Trade License

A trade license isn’t just a regulatory formality in Dubai; it’s the lifeblood of your business aspirations in this thriving emirate. Before you dive into the world of consultancy or any other business avenue in Dubai, this license serves as your ticket, offering you legitimacy and legal sanctity to operate. For consultants, especially, it reinforces trust among clients, ensuring them that the advisory services provided adhere to local standards and are of paramount quality.

Obtaining a Trade License in Dubai

Obtaining a trade license is a straightforward procedure and can be done through the following steps:

Select Your Business Activity

Dubai offers an extensive range of consultancy opportunities, with the Department of Economic Development (DED) listing over 2,000 business activities. Begin by aligning your expertise with these options, ensuring your services fit seamlessly into the existing market categories.

● Passport Copy

● Two Passport-size Photographs

● Trade Name (3 possible options for a trade name or company name)

● Residence Address Proof (UAE or home country)

● Visa Copy (if you are a resident) or Entry Stamp (if you are on a tourist visa). Skip if you don’t have either of them.

● Emirates ID (front and back) – If you are a UAE resident only, otherwise it’s not needed

● Payment Proof

 

Develop Your Business Name

Your business name is more than just a label; it's the cornerstone of your brand identity. Choose a name that reflects your consultancy's area of expertise and complies with the DED's naming guidelines to create a strong, resonant first impression.

Complete Application and Payment

Submit your application to the DED. Once approved, you'll receive a payment voucher. Finalize this step by paying the necessary fees to secure your trade license, marking the official start of your business journey in Dubai.

Investor Visa: Your Extended Stay Ticket

Having secured your trade license, the next logical progression is the investor visa. Often synonymous with the consultant visa in Dubai’s business circles, it’s your passport to prolonged residency, ensuring you can steer your business operations personally.

Gather Required Documents:

Start by assembling all necessary documents. This includes your passport, a copy of the proposed trade license, recent photographs, and an agreement with your service agent.

Undergo Health Screening:

Health is a top priority in Dubai. As part of the investor visa process, you’ll need to undergo a comprehensive medical check-up, including a blood test and chest X-ray.

Submit Visa Application:

With your health clearance and documents in hand, proceed to an official typing center to submit your investor visa application.

Complete Visa Stamping:

Once your visa is approved, the final step is to have your passport stamped. This official stamp signifies your status as an investor visa holder in Dubai.

A very efficient and friendly management consultancy company in Dubai. Used their services to start a "landside" company, obtain rental agreements and extend my business license for another year. Efficient communication and very competitive prices. Dubai has many such companies but Choose UAE stands out because of their attitude and efficiency.
