About this service
Business Setup UAE with Qube Business Solutions
Setting up a company in the UAE gives you a base in one of the world's most connected commercial hubs, with 100% foreign ownership available across the vast majority of activities and no personal income tax on what you earn.
Our role begins before any form is filed. We look at what you actually intend to sell, where your customers are, whether you need staff on the ground, and what your banking will look like in twelve months. That determines whether a free zone, mainland or offshore structure is right, and which of the forty-plus authorities is the correct fit.
Once the structure is agreed, the paperwork is ours. Name reservation, initial approval, memorandum drafting, notarisation and licence issuance all run through our team, and we introduce you to the bank once the licence is in hand. Most clients receive their trade licence within three to five working days of submitting passport copies.

The difference
Why choose our business setup uae service?
What you actually get when you hand this over to our team.
02
Activity codes chosen correctly
Your activity code determines visa quota, banking acceptance and whether you can legally invoice. We match it precisely rather than defaulting to a generic trading licence.
03
Bank introduction included
Incorporation without a bank account is half a company. We prepare the compliance file and introduce you to relationship managers who accept your profile.
04
No hidden authority fees
Free zone quotes often exclude the establishment card, e-channel registration and name reservation. Our written quote lists every line before you pay anything.
05
Remote setup where possible
Many free zone licences are issued without you ever entering the UAE. We tell you honestly which stages need your physical presence and which do not.
06
One consultant, start to finish
The person who advises you on structure is the same person who files your documents and calls you when the licence is ready.
