Yes, a signed office lease agreement is required to complete your trade license application. This is applicable to both free zone and mainland companies. Most free zones, however, allow for a minimal office facility rental, such as a virtual office or flexi desk, and this is included in the license and government costs that we will propose.

Upon engagement with Creation, we will provide a comprehensive list of the prerequisites for your UAE company setup. Documentation will differ depending on the company’s structure, such as a completely owned subsidiary or branch. Documentation will also differ depending on the company’s holdings, such as whether it is owned by an individual or a corporation. The shareholders’ minimum criteria include a copy of their passport and verification of their residential address.
Creation will create, legally translate, attest to, and notarize your new UAE business incorporation documents, such as the Memorandum and Articles of Association, so that your company can be up and running as soon as feasible.
The UAE has around 50 free zones, each with its own norms and regulations. Depending on the free zone selected, a corporation can be established in a matter of hours or weeks. The average timeframe for setting up a North Emirates firm is three days. The establishment time for companies in Dubai and Abu Dhabi free zones ranges between 2 and 6 weeks.
Mainland company structures differ. Some business activities allow us to finish the setup as an instant license, and we can have the firm registered in one day. However, some corporate activity may necessitate approvals from other government agencies and bodies. The timeline for mainland enterprises ranges from one to four weeks.
