FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Your questions, answered.
Do I need to live in Dubai to have a company there?
No, you do not need to live in Dubai to set up a company. Strive Consultants can help you register your business remotely. However, if you wish to obtain a Dubai residency visa, you’ll need to visit the UAE at least once every 6 months to maintain it.
What types of companies can I form in Dubai?
You can choose from various structures such as Free Zone, Mainland, and Offshore companies. The best option depends on your business model, ownership preferences, visa requirements, and whether you want to operate inside or outside the UAE.
How long does the business setup process take?
In most cases, the process can be completed in as little as 1 to 2 weeks, especially for Free Zone companies. Timelines vary depending on the jurisdiction, type of business license, and visa requirements.
Can I open a UAE bank account for my company?
Yes. Strive Consultants assists clients in preparing the necessary documents, scheduling appointments, and coordinating with banks. While the process has become more regulated, we help increase approval chances through pre-screening and due diligence.
