A Dubai Professional Company is a suitable structure for individuals or partners providing professional services based on their expertise, knowledge, intellectual abilities, or specialised skills. Dubai's mainland licensing system includes a Professional Licence for individuals and businesses offering professional services, with activities such as consultancy, training and other specialised services subject to the applicable requirements. The exact legal form and ownership conditions depend on the selected activity.
Our Dubai Professional Company Formation service helps entrepreneurs and professionals manage the key procedures involved in establishing their business. This includes assistance with selecting the appropriate professional activity and legal structure, reserving a trade name, preparing the required documents, obtaining initial approval, arranging any necessary additional approvals, and completing the licensing process. Requirements can vary depending on the nature of the professional activity and the relevant regulatory authority.
