Mainland or Free Zone — the right answer depends on where you trade, who your clients are and how you plan to operate.

02Free Zone structures suit businesses trading internationally or operating lean, with package-based licensing and facilities defined by the chosen zone.

A licence is the outcome of a decision, not the start of one. Here is exactly what we work through with you first, and why each answer changes the route.
Work through them with usWe define the actual business activity first — trading, services, consultancy, manufacturing or a mix. The activity decides which licence category is available to you, so it is settled before anything is filed.
Mainland if you need to trade inside the UAE market and contract locally; a Free Zone if your clients are largely international or you want a lean, package-based setup. We compare the realistic options for your case, not a generic list.
Commercial, professional or industrial — each maps to a different activity list, approval path and set of authorities. We confirm the correct category so the licence issued matches how you will actually operate.
Shareholding and legal structure, documentation and attestations, premises or flexi-desk requirements, visa allocation and any external approvals. These are mapped up front so nothing stalls the application later.
