How it works
From first call to trading, step by step.
A clear process with no surprises: you know the route, the cost and the realistic timeline before you commit, and you have one contact the whole way through.
01
Free consultation
A 30-minute conversation with a setup advisor about your activity, shareholders, visas and timeline. In person, by phone or video.
- The right structure, licence and jurisdiction
- Free Zone and Mainland compared for your activity
- Honest advice, including simpler or cheaper options
02
Itemised quote and checklist
You receive a written quote and a document checklist. Nothing starts until you approve it.
- Government fees and service fees listed separately
- A total with all fees included
- What is not included, in writing
03
We handle the process
Your advisor prepares and submits everything and follows it through each authority.
- Applications, approvals and the establishment card
- Visas, medical tests and Emirates ID appointments
- Bank introductions and application support
04
You start trading
Your licence, visas and bank account are in place, and your company is ready to operate.

Questions about the process
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation. If we are not the right fit, we will say so.
How quickly will I receive a quote?
Usually within one working day of your consultation, once we know your activity and number of visas.
Can I start before I arrive in the UAE?
Often, yes. Many steps can begin remotely, and a Power of Attorney lets us act for you on specific formalities.
How will I receive updates?
Your advisor updates you at each stage by email or WhatsApp, whichever you prefer.
