FAQs

How much does business setup in Dubai cost?

Depends on license & jurisdiction. Free zones run from low packages to premium; mainland varies by activity and office. Government fees are separate from consultant fees.

Do consultants help with bank account opening?

Most offer introductions and document prep; final approval is the bank’s decision.

Which is faster: mainland or free zone?

Free zone approvals are typically quicker; timelines still depend on activity and visas.
