How to Get a Trade License in Dubai, UAE

To secure your trade license in Dubai, UAE, follow these steps:

• Choose Your Business Activities: Start by selecting your business activities; you can opt for multiple activities under one license from a diverse range offered by SPC Free Zone.

• Pick a Trade Name: Selecting a unique trade name is vital for establishing your company's identity. Ensure its validity with the Department of Economic Development (DED) or the relevant free zone authority, adhering to trade name protocols and avoiding duplicates.

• Select Your Business Location: Opt for a business location wisely. Many companies prefer UAE Free Zones for cost-effectiveness, 100% foreign ownership, profit repatriation, and tax incentives.

• Submit Application and Pay Fees: Complete your application, providing necessary documents, and pay the required fees for your Dubai business license.

• Receive License and Open Bank Account: After a successful application, expect to receive your business license promptly, sometimes as quickly as 45 minutes when setting up with SPC Free Zone.
