Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About
UAE Company Formation

Yes, absolutely. Indian nationals are one of the largest groups of business owners in the UAE. You can set up a Mainland LLC, Free Zone company, or Offshore entity. Since 2021, the UAE allows 100% foreign ownership in most mainland business activities — no local sponsor required for most sectors.
Free Zone company registration typically takes 3–7 working days. Mainland LLC setup takes 7–14 working days. Offshore company formation is fastest, usually 2–5 days. Timeline may vary slightly based on activity approvals and document verification.
For many Free Zone and Offshore setups, physical presence is not mandatory. Documents can be notarised and attested in India and sent to UAE. However, for mainland setup and visa stamping, at least one visit is typically recommended. Our team coordinates everything to minimise travel requirements.
Minimum capital requirements vary. Most Free Zone companies can be set up with a nominal capital of AED 1,000–50,000. Under the new UAE Commercial Companies Law, Mainland LLCs in most activities have no mandatory minimum capital requirement. We advise based on your specific activity and structure.
Yes, we assist with corporate bank account opening as part of our setup package. While most UAE banks prefer an in-person visit for KYC, we help prepare all documents in advance and coordinate with our banking partners to streamline the process. Several digital business banking options are also available.
UAE introduced a 9% corporate tax effective June 2023, applicable only on taxable profits exceeding AED 375,000 (~₹86 lakhs). Profits below this threshold are taxed at 0%. Free Zone companies qualifying for the Free Zone Persons regime may still enjoy 0% corporate tax on qualifying income. There is no personal income tax.
