FAQs

How long does it take to set up a company in the UAE?

Most company setups in the UAE are completed within 7 to 10 working days, depending on the type of business activity, jurisdiction, and required approvals. At KeyGains, we manage the entire process efficiently so you can start operations as soon as possible.

What is the difference between Mainland, Freezone, and Offshore companies?

Mainland companies can trade anywhere in the UAE and internationally.
Freezone companies allow 100% foreign ownership and offer tax exemptions but are limited to operating within the freezone or outside the UAE.
Offshore companies are primarily used for international trading, asset holding, and tax optimization.

KeyGains will help you select the best option based on your business goals.

Do I need a local sponsor or partner to start a business in Dubai?
