Steps for a KIZAD Free Zone
Company Formation
1
Choose your business activity
The first step in Dubai Mainland company formation is to choose which commercial, professional, or industrial business activity you will engage in. Also, different activities require different approvals and specific licenses from relevant authorities.
2
Take initial approvals from DED
Apply for the initial approvals from DED on the proposed business activity. You must also take approval on other parameters, such as office location, shareholders, and capital.
3
Apply for external approvals if required
As mentioned above, some activities require additional approvals from other government entities, such as the Health Authority, the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority, and the Roads and Transport Authority. Apply and take those approvals before you proceed to register your business.
4
Trade Name Reservation
Reserve a name for your business by submitting an application on the DED’s name reservation portal. The name must be unique and should not be the same as other registered business names in Dubai. Please note the trade name must follow the DED trade name policy.
5
Signing of MOA
The next step would be the preparation of MOA for the company. The partners and shareholders are required to sign the MOA to show consent in setting up a company.
6
Office space selection
Lease suitable commercial space in Dubai as per DED’s location eligibility policies and usage type. Initially, you can take a small space that is budget-friendly and caters to your immediate business needs.
7
Mainland license issuance
The Department of Economic Development (DED) is subject to issuing trade licenses for mainland companies in Dubai. You must submit all documents and required information to the DED to apply for a mainland trade license. You also need approval of all the documents from relevant authorities and payment of the license fee to the DED.
8
Apply for relevant visa
Once your licence application is approved, apply for relevant visas for yourself, stakeholders, and employees.
