Cost of Setting Up a Business in UAE

 The registration of companies in Dubai is straightforward and requires you to submit a complete application and basic documentation about yourself and your business. The cost of a company set up in Dubai or a company set up in UAE depends on the type of business, the jurisdiction chosen and associated approvals and certifications. 






Cost based on the area to start a business

According to current standards, the cost of setting up a business in Dubai can be divided into three categories: established in the mainland, established in the free zone and setting up offshore companies. 

Establishing a free zone is one of the most cost-effective ways to register a business in Dubai for budget business. The cost of setting up a free zone is variable, and different start-up fees and procedures require that the owner of the company has a minimum amount of capital at his disposal if he wants to develop the company. Rental of offices on the mainland for business start-ups in the UAE is mandatory as it helps authorities to ensure that the company is legal. Acquiring a commercial license is a one-time effort and costs can vary depending on the business activity. The registration costs for companies in Dubai may change from time to time, but a fixed rate for various permits and documents is unlikely.


Establishing an onshore business in Dubai costs at least Dh340 (USD 9,350 according to the above ranking) and requires the payment of a myriad of fees. Registration fees, licensing fees and recurring costs can cost between 10,000 and 50,000 AED per year. These fees are paid when you make money from your business.


If you plan to open a business in one of Dubai's many free zones, remember that each free zone has its own established procedures and costs. If investors are interested in a free trade area in Dubai, they will have full ownership of their company and should take into account the costs associated with the start-up process in Dubai.
