PRO Services for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)


When a small or medium‑sized enterprise (SME) enters the UAE market, it often comes face‑to‑face with complex government paperwork. Entrepreneurs are busy building their brand and finding customers, which leaves little time for visa applications, labour contracts and other legal procedures. Public Relations Officer (PRO) services simplify these tasks by acting as a bridge between your company and government entities.

Why SMEs Need PRO Services

           Time‑saving support. PRO firms handle visa applications, labour card processing and other paperwork, freeing you to focus on core business operations.

           Expert knowledge of regulations. The UAE’s labour and immigration laws change regularly. Dedicated PRO service providers stay up‑to‑date and ensure compliance.

           Cost efficiency. Outsourcing visa and licence work can be more affordable than hiring full‑time staff, especially for a small team.

           Reduced risk of penalties. Missing a trade‑licence renewal or failing to submit a labour contract correctly can lead to fines. PRO specialists help businesses avoid such pitfalls.

           Convenience. From visa applications and Emirates ID cards to trade‑licence renewals, PRO services provide a hassle‑free solution for SMEs.

The Fimkin Advantage for SMEs

Fimkin’s Basic Package is designed specifically for companies with up to 50 employees. The plan covers immigration and labour‑department processes, including medical and biometric pick‑up and drop‑off for employees. A dedicated Fimkin PRO handles all typing and follow‑ups with government departments.

What makes Fimkin different is its digital‑first platform. Businesses can submit applications, track documents and receive updates from any device. Payments are seamless with online options like Stripe, Tabby and Tamara. Because the portal centralises services from multiple government departments, companies no longer need to visit different offices or websites. Real‑time notifications help managers monitor visa expiry dates and stay compliant.

Recently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What does a PRO do for small businesses?
A PRO handles government‑related tasks such as visa applications, Emirates ID registration, labour‑contract typing and document attestation. Outsourcing these tasks frees entrepreneurs from bureaucracy.

Is a trade licence necessary for every SME?
Yes. A trade licence issued by the Department of Economic Development is mandatory for conducting business in Dubai. PRO services help obtain and renew licences quickly.

How does Fimkin help monitor employee visas?
Through Fimkin’s dashboard, managers can view each employee’s visa status and expiry date. Automatic reminders ensure renewals are processed on time.

Why choose a subscription plan instead of paying per transaction?
A subscription locks in lower monthly rates and offers priority support. Fimkin’s annual subscription for up to 50 employees costs just 999 AED/month and includes full PRO support.

Final Thoughts

For SMEs, every minute and dirham counts. By outsourcing routine government interactions to Fimkin’s PRO specialists, small teams can operate efficiently and stay compliant with local laws. With transparent pricing, online payment options and real‑time updates, Fimkin simplifies bureaucracy so you can focus on growing your business.


Blog 2: PRO Services for Companies with More Than 50 Employees

Growing beyond 50 employees signals that your business is scaling, but it also introduces heavier regulatory demands. Visa quotas, labour contracts, and multiple department approvals become routine tasks that can drain internal resources. This is where professional PRO services become essential.

Challenges Mid‑Sized Companies Face

           Higher volume of employee visas. More staff means more visa applications, renewals and cancellations to manage.

           Multi‑department approvals. You may need to deal not only with immigration and labour ministries but also with the Department of Economic Development (DED), civil defence, municipality and other authorities.

           CICPA passes and industry‑specific requirements. Some sectors require passes from the Critical Infrastructure and Coastal Protection Authority (CICPA); managing these submissions adds complexity.

           HR support. On‑boarding, off‑boarding and payroll tasks increase as headcount grows and must align with UAE labour law.

The Standard Package from Fimkin

For companies employing 50–100 people, Fimkin offers a Standard Package at 1 500 USD per month. In addition to immigration and labour‑department processing, this plan includes:

           Typing for DED, civil defence and municipality applications.

           CICPA pass submissions twice monthly.

           Medical and biometric pick‑up/drop‑off services for employees.

           Access to Fimkin’s digital dashboard, where you can track every application, monitor visa statuses and receive day‑to‑day updates on pending tasks.

On Fimkin’s unified platform, HR managers submit documents once and the system routes them to the appropriate government agencies. Built‑in reminders help ensure that trade licences, labour cards and visa renewals are processed on time. Online payments via Stripe, Tabby or Tamara reduce paperwork and simplify expense tracking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should use mid‑range PRO packages?
Companies with growing teams (50–100 staff) that need more than basic visa processing should use a mid‑range PRO plan. The inclusion of DED and municipality tasks ensures wider coverage for business operations.

How can PRO services save costs for my business?
By ensuring paperwork is accurate and submitted on time, PRO services help avoid penalties and late fees. One consultancy estimates that outsourcing can save at least 80 % of administrative expenses.

What are the benefits of using corporate PRO services?
Apart from cost savings, businesses benefit from 24/7 support, customized solutions and guaranteed compliance.

What types of visas can PRO services help with?
PRO firms handle employee visas, family residency visas, visa cancellations and renewals. They also manage labour cards, Emirates ID cards and other documentation.

Do PRO services ensure financial transparency?
Yes. Professional providers give clients access to receipts and detailed records of all charges, ensuring no hidden costs.

Conclusion

As your workforce grows, the volume of regulatory tasks increases as well. Fimkin’s Standard Package delivers end‑to‑end support, from immigration paperwork to DED approvals. With digital tracking, priority support and flexible online payments, mid‑sized companies can manage compliance without sacrificing efficiency.
