Visas, banking and compliance

Any advertised licence-issuance period relates to the licensing stage and may exclude security checks, immigration, Emirates ID, banking and external approvals.

Costs and renewal

Compare the Complete First-Year Requirement

Cost depends on package, activities, shareholders, visas, establishment card, immigration, medical fitness, Emirates ID, workspace, approvals and renewal.

Quotations should separate authority, immigration, visa, workspace and ITQAN charges. Promotional licence pricing is not the complete setup cost.

After receiving the licence

Complete the Obligations Around the Company

Next steps can include the establishment card, visas, medical fitness, Emirates ID, corporate bank-account preparation, Ultimate Beneficial Owner records and annual renewal. Banks make their own approval decisions.

Businesses should arrange accounting and bookkeeping, assess VAT registration and filing, and complete applicable Corporate Tax registration and filing. VAT depends on taxable activities and thresholds.

Frequently asked

ANCFZ Setup Questions

Package and activity details should be confirmed for each proposed company.

01Can I form an ANCFZ company remotely?+

ANCFZ offers digital formation for overseas founders. Identity, signature and immigration stages remain subject to authority requirements.

02What is a zero-visa package?+

It is a licence without residence-visa allocation. It may suit founders who do not need UAE residence. Later visa eligibility involves additional charges and approval.

03Can one licence include different activities?+

Unified packages support approved activity combinations. Unrelated or regulated activities may require separation or external approval.

04Can the company obtain residence visas?+

Visa-eligible packages are available. Allocation depends on the package, establishment card, immigration rules and applicant eligibility.

05Is a physical office compulsory?+

Package and activity determine the workspace. A registered address may be included, while businesses needing dedicated space can consider an executive office.

06Can an ANCFZ company work with mainland clients?+

Yes, through permitted arrangements, but the licence does not grant unrestricted mainland trading. Products, customs or regulated work may require additional approvals.

07Are banking and 0% Corporate Tax guaranteed?+

No. Banks decide independently. The 0% rate applies only to qualifying income when all statutory conditions are met.
