The companies we have served belong to different sectors, for example, jewelry, energy, hospitality, retail, wholesale, etc.

Those companies began their respective journeys with us. Now, many of them have earned reputable names in the UAE as well as in the international market.

Why Setup a Mainland Company

Whether you opt for mainland company formation in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or other Emirates, we will provide you with practical advice & sound guidance. There are several reasons why one should set up a company in mainland UAE.

Unlike free zone company formation, you do not have restrictions on the number of employment visas when you set up a mainland company. You can arrange visas for your employees after completing your mainland company registration.

Whether you incorporate a Dubai mainland company or a company anywhere in the mainland UAE, we will suggest the best location. The location we suggest will be according to your industry, business plan, and office requirements. You are not bound to start your office at a particular location. Feel free to choose one anywhere in the UAE, excluding the UAE-free zones.

When you opt for Dubai mainland company setup, there is no minimum or maximum office space requirement. N R Doshi and Partners will work to get the ideal place for your business.

As your company will be allowed to interact with the UAE market, you can reach local clients & create a positive impression. As we thoroughly know the UAE market, we will provide you with valuable tips so that you can get a good head-start. We will recommend the company structure as per the level of interaction you require.

Whether you opt for a business setup in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, there is no need to limit your approach in any of these emirates. Depending on your requirements, we can help you open branches in any of the seven Emirates or multiple ones. This strategy will expand your market reach in mainland UAE.

It is certainly possible to take all the capital and earnings back to your country. There could be a restriction on some of the activities. However, in most cases, 100% repatriation of capital and profit is possible.

You do not need to pay any corporate taxes for owning and running a company in the mainland UAE. Further, there is no need to pay personal income tax.

We ensure that your company’s legal structure allows you to pitch for government and private projects. Such an option is not available in free zone companies. It allows you to get engaged with a wide range of activities.

How to Setup Mainland Company

Based on your business goals & activities, NR Doshi & Partners will provide you with suitable recommendations.

Therefore, the first task we undertake is to discuss what you expect by setting up a company in the UAE. Further, as a part of this task, we go through your business activities and put them under a specific category: commercial, professional, or industrial.

We decide which would be the best legal structure for your business according to the company’s goals. You can choose from multiple business structures like the ones below:

  • Limited Liability Company (LLC Company)
  •  Professional firms (Civil Companies)
  • Branch office of foreign companies
  • Branch office of the Free Zone Company

All mainland company formation types have distinctive features to achieve specific company objectives. As we have come across different businesses, we know how to fit your goals under one of the categories.

You must submit the company’s official name to the Department of Economic Development. It is required to provide three names with the preference. If the 1st preferred name is already used, the 2nd one is considered, and so on. However, there are specific strict guidelines and rules for trade name selection.

N R Doshi and Partners are aware of those guidelines and remain updated whenever there is an amendment. We will help you with the name selection. Often, guidance helps to get trade name approval in the first attempt itself.

Along with the trade name, you need to provide details of the business activities to the Department of Economic Development. The initial approval is to provide you with the assurance that you can conduct business in the UAE.

Moving further, it is necessary to have business premises and a tenancy contract. You can enter into a tenancy contract by leasing property. Depending on your requirements, you can choose any location in the UAE. We will help you in selecting the best cost-effective premises for your business. Our target would be to find a location that can serve all your needs with minimal expenditure.

After you get the tenancy contract, prepare a Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA). The company owner needs to sign a Local Sponsor Agreement with a local sponsor.

You can rely on NR Doshi & Partners to find a trustworthy local sponsor, as we have been a prominent name in the financial sector for over three decades. A local sponsor is usually required while setting up LLC in UAE. We need to submit both documents to DED Dubai for approval.

Some business activities require approval from different authorities. We assist you in preparing documents for those approvals. Further, we submit on your behalf and keep track of approval.

After the submission, you will need to make the payment for your mainland company formation license. After making the required payment per the number of your business activities, you will receive your business license in a week, ending your company registration process.

The good news is that you have completed the most crucial company formation steps, but you need to clear the final hurdle. It is time to register with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, after which the government will issue a Certificate of Registration.
