Why is Dubai the Top Choice for European Investors?

European businesses prefer Dubai for several strategic reasons:

  • Tax Efficiency: Zero personal income tax and a low, globally competitive corporate tax rate.
  • 100% Foreign Ownership: You can own your company outright without needing a local partner in most sectors.
  • Global Gateway: A strategic location connecting Europe, Asia, and Africa, with world-class logistics infrastructure.
  • Economic & Political Stability: A safe and stable environment supported by investor-friendly legislation.

Step 1: Virtual Consultation & Strategy

Your journey begins with a video consultation with one of our experts. In this session, we understand your goals and help you make the first crucial decisions: determining the right company structure (Mainland vs. Free Zone) and selecting the most suitable business activity.

Step 2: Digital Document Preparation

No need to mail any physical documents. All we require are clear digital copies of your passport, a passport-sized photo, and any other documents specific to your chosen activity. We handle the review and preparation for submission.

Step 3: The Remote Setup Process

This is where we take over. Our team manages all procedures on your behalf, including submitting applications to government authorities, reserving your trade name, obtaining necessary approvals, and finally, issuing your official trade license.

Step 4: Corporate Bank Account Opening

We know that opening a bank account is one of the biggest challenges for remote investors. Thanks to our partnerships with leading banks in the UAE, we streamline this process and help you prepare the required file to ensure a quick and smooth approval.

Step 5: Receiving Your Documents & Residence Visa (If Needed)

Once the setup is complete, we provide you with digital copies of all your company documents. If you wish to obtain a residence visa, we manage the entire process to ensure you get it with minimal effort.

The timeline depends on the license type and government authority, but generally, a trade license can be issued within a few days to two weeks once all documents are submitted.
