Why Incorporate in Dubai?

Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, has emerged as one of the world's premier business destinations, particularly for entrepreneurs from India, Asia, and Africa. Dubai offers zero personal income tax, a 9% federal corporate tax (introduced in 2023) with a 0% rate for qualifying Free Zone entities on qualifying income, 100% foreign ownership in designated Free Zones, and the ability to sponsor UAE residency visas for shareholders and employees. The UAE has an extensive tax treaty network and is strategically located between European, Asian, and African markets. Indian entrepreneurs particularly favour Dubai for its large Indian diaspora, ease of doing business, and access to Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) markets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Dubai Free Zone company and a Mainland company?+
A Free Zone company (e.g., DMCC, IFZA, RAKEZ) can be 100% foreign-owned, pays 0% corporate tax on qualifying income, but cannot directly trade with the UAE domestic market without a local distributor. A Mainland company (DED-licensed) can trade directly in the UAE market but historically required a local UAE national sponsor for certain activities (though this requirement has been liberalised for most sectors).
What corporate tax rate applies to Dubai companies?+
The UAE introduced a 9% federal corporate tax effective from June 2023. However, Free Zone entities with qualifying income continue to benefit from a 0% tax rate on that income, provided they meet substance requirements. Businesses with annual revenue below AED 375,000 are also exempt.
Can I get a UAE residence visa through company incorporation?+
Yes. A UAE company shareholder or director is eligible to apply for a UAE Investor or Partner Visa, which provides UAE residency. The number of visas depends on the Free Zone and office space allocation. We advise on visa eligibility as part of our service.
How long does Dubai company setup take?+
Free Zone company incorporation typically takes 5–10 business days. Mainland company formation may take 2–3 weeks depending on the business activity and required approvals. Bank account opening adds additional time — typically 2–4 weeks.
What are the FEMA requirements for Indian founders setting up in Dubai?+
Indian residents investing in a UAE company must comply with FEMA's Overseas Direct Investment framework. This involves reporting the investment to an authorised dealer bank and obtaining RBI approvals under the ODI route for certain sectors. We guide you through full FEMA compliance.
