Company Formation:
Setting up a new business in Dubai Airport Free zone is sometimes very challenging for the novice. Although the authorities aim at making the process of applying, registering and licensing as easy as possible, it is better to take the help of an authorized company registration agent. Provided all legal documents and bank account are complete, the entire process should not take longer than 4 weeks.
The primary step is to complete and submit the application form to DAFZA, following which a few documents have to be submitted to the Sales Department which will be reviewed by the committee for initial acceptance. After obtaining initial approval, which will take approximately 7 to 10 working days, allocation of the facilities will be given, followed by the invoice and lease agreement.
After making the payment, the clients will need to submit the legal documents to the Lease and Licensing Department and the layout and interior design to the Interior Design Department.
Once all the legal documents are submitted and payment completed, the license will be issued.
