Requirements and Benefits of LLC Company Setup in Dubai

Business setup in Dubai, UAE

Dubai has been the perfect destination for investors in the past years, thanks to the endless benefits, such as diversified policies, economic stability, tax exemption, and full ownership opportunities.

There is a lot of documentation, authorizations, and approvals required for business setup in UAE. Professional Business Setup Consultants in Dubai help clients acquire these documents and permits from different governmental corporations such as the Dubai Chamber, Ministry of Labour, Department of Economic Development, Dubai Immigration and Naturalization Department, and many more.

Local Sponsor

To set an LLC company in the Dubai Mainland, you need to have a local sponsor. A local sponsor owns 51% of the capital’s name without investing any of his funds in the company.  A local sponsor does not have to take any of the company’s profit but can take his share in various other profit-sharing forms, such as getting an annual fixed fee or a percentage of the revenue.

As a leading Business Setup Consultants in Dubai, Global Link provides clients with the special service of Corporate Local Nominee partnership. Under this sponsorship, we act as the majority shareholder on any newly establishing or existing onshore license.

Global Link solution for the corporate sponsor (51%) is held by the company:

Risk Mitigation Agreements (RMA)- under this control and profit entitlement divert from the UAE Corporate Shareholder to the foreign investor(s).

From a structural perspective, people prefer the Global link corporate sponsorship solution rather than using a local Emirati individual as we provide complete protection and security to our partners.

There are several advantages of using a corporate sponsor instead of a UAE individual for business setup in UAE, including:

  • Control of the company rests with the client
  • The fee charged will not increase arbitrarily
  • The client has the flexibility to change the sponsor at any time
  • Risk Agreements protect both parties
  • Avoidance of uncertainty over sharia law
  • A company doesn’t die, so no issues with probate if death occurs
  • Global Link is licensed and regulated; an individual is not
  • Global Link is insured against loss
  • We transfer the Power of Attorney to the manager of the company for day-to-day activities.
  • A Global link representative is always available for signatures (no need to chase the Emirati national and wait if they are out of the country)

It is worth noting that this corporate sponsorship is available for any newly incorporating company. But also, this is more geared towards already existing companies who wish to remove their existing local sponsor and replace them with a much more secure vehicle.

Benefits:

  • 100% profit share, although you only own 49% of the business.
  • Local Sponsor is not involved in your company according to the agreement they make in the court once we complete all legal procedures.
  • Easily open a global corporate bank account following the Dubai LLC formation.
  • No minimum capital payment is needed.
