HBC ‘s goal is to make the process as sim­ple as pos­si­ble, and we al­ways start with a thor­ough un­der­stand­ing of your needs. Given the num­ber of free zones in the UAE ad­ver­tis­ing their ser­vices lo­cally and abroad, there is of­ten con­fu­sion as to the need to set up a busi­ness in mainland at all.

A sim­ple rule of thumb is that if your busi­ness will trade in phys­i­cal goods in Dubai then you will need a mainland li­cense. This also in­cludes lo­cal con­struc­tion, man­u­fac­tur­ing, and re­lated ac­tiv­i­ties.

There are ex­cep­tions, and a mem­ber of our team will dis­cuss your in­di­vid­ual re­quire­ments to de­ter­mine what op­tions are avail­able to you.

All mainland com­pa­nies li­censed through the De­part­ment of Eco­nomic De­vel­op­ment (DED) in Dubai are re­quired to rent phys­i­cal of­fice space as part of the li­cens­ing re­quire­ments.
