Cost policy
Direct and itemised
Figures are indicative and may change with government tariffs, activity, property status, applicant profile and case complexity. Your written scope confirms current official and professional fees before work begins.
Government fees and eligibility rules may change. The current scope and official costs are confirmed before the application begins.
THE DECISION
Know what changes when the work is done.
The problem
The wrong activity, legal form or office arrangement can increase cost, restrict hiring and make banking harder before the business has even started.
What you receive
You leave with the agreed licence and company documents, a coordinated residence route, banking preparation and access to the official portals used to run the company.
What this avoids
The structure, activity, official fees and in-country stages are agreed before filing, so avoidable changes and surprise dependencies are identified early.
ELIGIBILITY & KEY RULES
Check the route before you apply.
- Sole Establishment — A service route for one professional. A lighter freelance version may work without staff, investor residence or a physical office; a full route supports residence and employment needs.
- Professional LLC — For one or more owners selling expertise or services. Many permitted activities allow 100% foreign ownership.
- Trading LLC — Required when the business buys, sells, imports or distributes goods. Product scope affects licence, premises and bank review.
- Office and staff — Ejari, labour registration and employee visas depend on whether the company will hire and what physical space the activity requires.
WHO IT IS FOR
Recognisable client situations.
- Independent professionals — For specialists selling knowledge or services through a UAE-licensed structure.
- Trading founders — For businesses importing, exporting or distributing goods from Dubai.
- Teams entering the UAE — For owners who need a licence, investor residence and a route to employing staff.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
Concrete work. Clear handover.
- Licence and company documents — A choice of legal form and licensed activity aligned with how the business will earn and operate.
- Investor residence coordination — Coordination of the trade licence and investor residence process, with dependencies mapped in advance.
- Portal access and renewal handover — Official documents, authority portals and the knowledge needed to manage renewals and obligations directly.
- Bank application preparation — Preparation for corporate and personal bank account applications once the company and residence documents are ready.
WHAT ADA HANDLES
Personal involvement, made visible.
- Activity and structure check — I match the commercial model to a permitted activity and explain the consequences of Sole Establishment, single-owner LLC or multi-partner LLC.
- Authority coordination — I coordinate name reservation, licence documents and the agreed investor residence stages in the correct order.
- Direct control after setup — You receive the final documents and relevant portal access, with a clear renewal calendar rather than being locked into future intermediary work.
DOCUMENTS & REQUIREMENTS
Prepare the right evidence once.
- Personal documents
- Passport valid for at least six months
- Digital studio-quality passport photograph for residence processing
- Personal contact and ownership details
- Business decisions
- Preferred company name and licensed activity
- Owners, shareholding and capital decisions
- Expected staff, visas, office and operating model
- Financial evidence
- Employment contract or existing company licence where requested
- Six months of personal or company bank statements where requested
- Commercial background for later bank review
THE PROCESS
What happens after you start.
- Define — Confirm activity, owners, visas, staff and the intended operating model.
- Structure — Select the suitable legal form, licence route and premises requirement.
- Licence — Reserve the name, file the application and issue the company documents.
- Residence — Complete the investor visa, medical and Emirates ID stages where included.
- Operate — Prepare banking, labour and employee routes, then hand over documents and portal access.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Real objections, answered directly.
- Which company type should I choose?
That depends on the licensed activity, number of owners, need for employees and whether the business sells services or goods. The first step is to map those facts before selecting the structure.
- Can I own the company outright?
Many mainland professional and trading activities allow 100% foreign ownership. Regulated activities and specific legal forms may have additional approval or agency requirements.
- Will I receive the official documents and portal access?
Yes. The service is designed around direct control: final company documents and relevant authority access are handed over to the owner.
- What is not included in the indicative company total?
The final scope separates Ada’s professional work, current government charges and any bank, qualification, external approval, warehouse, employee or other third-party cost required by the chosen activity.
- Are the published figures fixed?
Figures are indicative and may change with government tariffs, activity, property status, applicant profile and case complexity. Your written scope confirms current official and professional fees before work begins.
