Corporate Services in United Arab Emirates

Business-Friendly Environment

The UAE offers attractive business incentives, including support and guidance for small businesses. For example, the Dubai SME Government Procurement Program requires all Dubai government departments to allocate at least 5% of their annual procurement budgets to businesses owned and operated by UAE nationals that are engaged in small and medium-sized enterprises.

Tax and Fiscal Support

The UAE provides appealing tax incentives for businesses and individuals. For instance, it does not impose income tax on most businesses, introduced VAT (value-added tax) starting in 2018, which is generally borne by consumers, and businesses can apply for VAT refunds for commercial expenses. Additionally, companies registered in free zones can benefit from 100% corporate tax exemptions.

Strategic Location

The UAE's geographical location makes it a hub for East-West trade, providing an ideal foothold for import-export or trade business. Situated between Asia, Europe, and Africa, it offers businesses convenient access to the Middle East market.

Full Business Ownership

In the UAE's free zones, foreign entrepreneurs can own businesses 100%, enjoying zero establishment and personal taxes, 100% capital and income repatriation, and 100% import and export tax exemptions. This policy provides foreign investors with significant flexibility and control.
