The service, explained

What you get and why it matters.

The UAE is the gateway to the Gulf for thousands of German companies. The right setup depends on what you do: a free-zone company is quick and 100% foreign-owned, a mainland company can trade directly across the country.

We advise on the right structure and coordinate everything with a licensed setup provider in our network in the UAE: trade licence, office, residence visas and the bank account.

Included
  • Free zone or mainland: the right choice for your activity
