OVERVIEW

Dubai, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, is a small and culturally diverse city. It has a population of 3.34 million people (2019), a significant proportion of whom are expats.

Dubai is the financial centre of the Middle East. It also serves as an ideal business link between Europe and Africa. While Dubai's primary revenues are from oil, tourism, and trade, the finance sector has seen rapid growth in recent years, contributing significantly to the economy.

Dubai combines a Western-style business model and a traditional ethos. It is therefore the most forward-looking of all seven emirates and the point where the West, Middle East, and the Far East meet.

Thanks to its world-class infrastructure, business-friendly policies, and international investors, Dubai is a prominent trade centre in the Arabian Gulf region. Dubai's initiative to create specialised free trade zones (FTZ) has contributed to its continued economic success.

Why Choose Dubai?

Dubai is a popular destination for expats. It is a superb location to develop your career and earn a lucrative salary, all while exploring a rich culture and history.

Dubai offers a unique blend of modern living and traditional experiences in a vibrant cosmopolitan setting. Its status as the meeting point of global business makes it a unique place to live and work.

Expats benefit from a relaxed, vibrant lifestyle with plenty of activities throughout the year, including some of the most exclusive and extravagant international events, such as the Dubai International Boat Show, Dubai Film Festival, and Art Dubai. Many international championships are held annually, including the World Cup for Horse Racing, the Rugby 7s tournament and the UAE Desert Challenge.

Requirements to set up a company

Dubai is a great place to start a business. It has low operating costs, modern infrastructure, economic free trade zones, and a thriving economy. It welcomes multinational and international businesses by providing a free and open market, minimal government control, and liberal visa regulations.

Since requirements for international entrepreneurs vary depending on the specific type of license you wish to obtain, please refer to the specific government measures for further information.


Requirements for employees wishing to relocate

GCC citizens and nationalities who plan to move to Dubai must apply for an employment visa, which is a legal document required to live and work in the UAE. A health card must be obtained upon arrival, in addition to a residence permit stamp and a Labour Card. These are essential if you intend to work in the private sector.

Dubai's Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation issues work permits. This permit is issued to your employer by the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation. It can then be converted into a valid residence visa.

A work permit is required to work in the UAE once you have obtained the residence visa. Your employer will need to arrange a number of formalities including medical testing, Emirates ID and Labour Card, and a residency visa.
