For Buyers

Business Setup

For buyers acquiring a UAE business: get a clean legal vehicle (mainland or Free Zone), trade license, residency visa, corporate bank account, and VAT registration — coordinated so the SPA closes onto an entity you actually own and operate.

Why it matters

  • Right structure, first time. Mainland vs. Free Zone vs. offshore changes ownership rules, tax exposure, and the activities you can do — we pick the structure that matches the business you are acquiring.
  • Faster closing. The seller cannot transfer their business to a buyer that does not yet have a license; standing up your entity in parallel with DD shaves weeks off the timeline.
  • Banking and VAT covered. Corporate bank accounts and VAT registrations are the two biggest post-closing snags — we pre-clear both so you can operate from day one.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Structure call (30 min)

    We map your target acquisition to the right jurisdiction, license activity codes, and shareholder structure.

  2. Step 2

    License + visa filing

    We file the trade license, sponsor your investor visa, and handle the Emirates ID + medical.

  3. Step 3

    Bank + VAT

    We open a corporate account with a UAE bank and register for VAT if applicable.

  4. Step 4
