LEGAL STRUCTURE IN UAE

Individual Shareholding

In Dubai, individual shareholding allows a single person to own a company, facilitating 100% foreign ownership in many business sectors. Individuals can set up various business structures, such as sole proprietorships or limited liability companies (LLCs), depending on the business activity. This setup provides flexibility and control over the business while complying with local regulations.

Corporate Shareholding

Corporate shareholding in Dubai enables a company to hold shares in another company, offering opportunities for joint ventures and partnerships. A corporate entity can own a stake in an LLC or other business structures, enhancing its presence in the UAE market. This arrangement allows for resource pooling and risk sharing, essential for companies looking to expand their operations within the region.

Branch of a Foreign Company

A branch of a foreign company in Dubai can conduct business under its parent company’s name and is allowed to operate in the UAE. While it can engage in commercial activities, it must obtain the necessary approvals from local authorities, such as the Department of Economic Development (DED). The branch is not a separate legal entity and is fully liable for its activities, with profits subject to UAE taxation.

Representative Office

A representative office serves as a liaison for foreign companies in Dubai, allowing them to promote their services and products without engaging in direct commercial activities. This type of office can conduct market research and build relationships but cannot generate income. It requires approval from the local authorities and is often used by companies looking to explore the UAE market before establishing a more substantial presence.
