Company Office
Office setup rules and steps

Setting up an office for a company in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) typically involves several requirements, which may vary depending on the emirate and the type of company. Here are some general requirements:

1. Business License: You need to obtain the appropriate business license for your company activity. This can vary based on whether you're setting up in a free zone or on the mainland.

2. Office Space: Depending on the type of business and the licensing authority, you may need physical office space. This could range from a flexi-desk option to a full-fledged office depending on the type of license and business activity.

3. Tenancy Contract: A tenancy contract is required to establish the physical address of your office. The contract must be attested by the relevant authorities.

4. Local Sponsor/Service Agent: For mainland companies, you may need a local sponsor or service agent, depending on the type of business activity. Free zone companies typically don't require a local sponsor.

5. Approval from Relevant Authorities: You may need approval from various governmental bodies depending on your business activity and location. This could include the Department of Economic Development (DED) or specific free zone authorities.

6. Financial Requirements: Depending on the type of business, you may need to show a certain level of capital or investment.

7. Visa Requirements: If you plan to hire staff, you'll need to fulfill visa requirements, which may be tied to having an office space.

8. Compliance with Regulations: Ensure compliance with local regulations regarding office space, including health and safety standards, and accessibility requirements.

9. Trade Name Registration: Register your trade name with the relevant authorities.

10. Utilities: Arrange for utilities such as electricity, water, and internet connection for your office space.

11. Approval for Special Activities: If your business involves certain specialized activities (e.g., medical services), you may need additional approvals from specific authorities.
