Dubai Free Zone Company Setup
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
I plan to incorporate a consulting company in Dubai under a Free Zone licence and need end-to-end guidance, from choosing the right zone through to post-registration compliance.
The work involves:
• Recommending the most suitable Free Zone for a consulting activity, comparing licence categories, share-capital rules, and any sector-specific restrictions.
• Handling the full incorporation and licence application, including name reservation, MoA preparation, and submission on the relevant government portal.
• Outlining registered office solutions. I am undecided between a physical desk and a virtual office, so please explain the pros, cons, and pricing structures for each.
• Advising on opening a corporate bank account in the UAE, detailing KYC requirements, typical timelines, and banks that are receptive to Free Zone consulting firms.
• Detailing visa eligibility, quota, medical and Emirates ID steps, and total costs if residency visas are required.
• Providing a clear schedule that shows every government fee separately from your professional service fee, alongside any optional add-ons (e.g., PO box, document attestation).
• Supplying an overall timeline from initial document collection through to licence issuance, bank account activation, and first compliance renewal date.
• Listing ongoing obligations—economic substance, UBO filings, bookkeeping, audit, VAT (if applicable)—so I can budget accurately.
Please attach a concise proposal that covers:
1. Recommended structure and Free Zone (with rationale).
2. Itemised fee table (government vs. professional).
3. Step-by-step timeline with milestones.
4. Your direct experience setting up UAE Free Zone consulting entities, including the zones and banks you have worked with.
5. Your best fixed quotation and permitted payment schedule.
Clarity, transparent pricing, and realistic timeframes will be the key factors in my selection.
