1. Structure & eligibility
We review the activity, ownership, management and intended market before coordinating the appropriate route.
Mainland, free-zone and other UAE options can look similar from a distance. The right route depends on what the business will actually do, where it will trade, its ownership, office needs, visa requirements and post-incorporation obligations.
A UAE incorporation should not begin with a package price alone. We first look at the proposed activity, where customers will be located, whether the company needs to trade in the local UAE market, the ownership profile, visa/office expectations and the commercial reason for establishing the entity.
Formation is one step. A workable structure also needs to consider how the company will operate after registration.
We review the activity, ownership, management and intended market before coordinating the appropriate route.
We coordinate the incorporation package, KYC, constitutional documents and local service-provider requirements.
Where relevant, we coordinate registered-office, tax, accounting, banking and other post-formation requirements with appropriate professionals.
UAE corporate tax and free-zone treatment should not be reduced to a slogan such as “0% tax.” Eligibility and tax treatment depend on the entity, income, activities and applicable conditions. Banking is also subject to the bank’s own KYC and risk assessment.
Prof-Bus acts as the client-facing coordination desk. We can organise the requirement, collect and review information, coordinate filings and follow-ups, and keep the client informed. Where a matter requires a locally licensed lawyer, accountant, tax adviser, registered agent, corporate service provider or other regulated professional, that work is coordinated with the appropriate provider rather than represented as being performed by Prof-Bus itself.
Country rules, government fees, tax treatment, licensing and banking practices change. Final implementation is confirmed against the facts and the rules applicable at the time of engagement.
Tell us the country, proposed activity, owners, directors, expected operations and target date. We will identify the practical questions that need to be resolved before implementation.
