Bank Account Opening

Bank selection, package preparation, KYC / due diligence support, handling complex and non-standard cases.

Market Research

Analysis of demand, competitors, pricing and sales channels in the UAE before launch — so the decision to enter rests on data, not expectations.

Marketing Support & Advertising

Launching and running digital marketing through our own agency: advertising, content, analytics, sales.

Who It's For

Built For Your Stage

Entrepreneurs entering the UAE market for the first time who don't know where to start.

Those already declined by a bank or facing complex compliance.

Registration & licensing

We prepare documents, file with the registering authority, obtain the license and constitutional documents.

We support entry visa, medical, biometrics and Emirates ID.

05

Bank account

We select the bank, prepare the rationale, support due diligence and the manager meeting.

06

Marketing & launch

We bring in market research, strategy and our own agency to take the business to its first customers.

UAE Market Context

The Rules of the Market

Key facts about doing business in the UAE, drawn from official government sources.

100% foreign ownership: foreign investors can own up to 100% of onshore (mainland) companies since 1 June 2021, after the Commercial Companies Law removed the mandatory 51% Emirati shareholder requirement for most activities. A small number of strategic sectors remain restricted. Free zones have always allowed full foreign ownership.

Corporate tax: 0% on taxable income up to AED 375,000 and 9% above it, introduced under Federal Decree-Law No. 47 of 2022 and effective for financial years starting on or after 1 June 2023.

Free zone advantage: qualifying free zone companies can retain a 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income, provided they meet the conditions set out in the law.

VAT: a standard 5% rate has applied since 1 January 2018.

Banking: opening an account requires KYC and due diligence; restrictions may apply to residents of certain countries under international sanctions regimes.

Frequently Asked

Questions, Answered

How are you different from a standard company registrar?

A registrar takes you to a license and an account. We take you to a working business: we add market research, strategy and marketing support through our own agency.

Can you help if a bank has already declined me?

Yes. Complex and non-standard account-opening cases are one of our core competencies. We match the bank to your profile, repackage the rationale and support the process.

How long does registration take?

Free zones typically 5–7 business days; mainland from 2–3 business days when all documents are ready. Account opening is a separate stage, usually 2 to 6 weeks.

Do you only handle registration, or run the business afterward?

We continue. Tax and accounting support, marketing and sales can be added as a package or as separate modules.
