Selecting the right business license is one of the most critical steps in setting up your company in Dubai. Here’s a breakdown of the primary types of licenses available:
A commercial license is issued for businesses engaged in trading activities. This could include import/export, sales, real estate, and logistics. If your company plans to sell goods or services in Dubai or beyond, this license is essential.
If your business provides services rather than goods (e.g., consultancy, legal services, marketing, or IT), you'll need a professional license. This type of license is ideal for service-oriented businesses and offers flexibility in ownership structures, particularly for expats.
An industrial license is required for companies involved in manufacturing, processing, or production activities. This license covers industries like textiles, food processing, and heavy machinery.
Given Dubai's thriving tourism industry, a tourism license is necessary if you plan to operate travel agencies, tour operators, or hospitality services. This license is perfect for businesses targeting Dubai's booming travel market.
