FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to live in Dubai to own a company there?

No. Owning a company does not require living in Dubai, and parts of the process can be handled remotely. Residence visas are available as part of a setup where you want them, and we map out what presence your specific setup requires before you commit.

How long does the setup take?

Processing times are set by the authorities and depend on the jurisdiction, license type and your documentation. We give you a realistic timeline for your specific case up front, and we keep the process short by having your documents complete before submission.

Does a residence visa change my taxes at home?

Not by itself. The UAE levies no personal income tax on salaries, but your tax liability in your home country depends on its residency rules and your situation, so consult your own tax adviser before you build plans on it.

Can my family get visas too?

Yes, family members can be sponsored under your residence visa. We handle the applications and tell you exactly which documents are needed for each family member.

Can you guarantee a bank account?

No, and no serious provider can. The bank runs its own KYC and AML checks and makes the decision. What we do is assist with bank selection, documentation and the application, which removes the avoidable reasons for rejection.
