Business Setup & Administration

Company Formation

Navigate your UAE business setup, from choosing a structure to coordinating the paperwork.

A closer look

Company formation starts with understanding what you intend to do, who will own the business, and how it will operate. QBS helps organize those decisions and coordinate the setup work around the chosen activity and jurisdiction. The aim is a clear plan for the establishment process, rather than an application built on assumptions.

Who this helps

Entrepreneurs establishing a UAE business, existing owners considering a new entity, and international businesses exploring a UAE presence.

Options & deliverables

  • Business activity and operating-model discussion
  • Comparison of relevant setup options within our agreed scope
  • Coordination of setup information and application documents
  • Application progress updates and an agreed handover checklist

Before we begin

  • A plain-language description of your products or services
  • Proposed owners, their roles, and preferred business names
  • Expected customers, working location, staffing needs, and target start date
  • Your working budget and any decisions already made

How the work progresses

  1. Understand your business

    We review your intended activity, ownership, and operating needs.

  2. Agree the setup path

    We discuss the available scope and requirements before agreeing the work.

  3. Coordinate the application

    We help organize the agreed paperwork and follow the application through its next steps.

Scope & dependencies

The available setup route and application requirements depend on the activity and relevant authority. Government charges, premises, visas, banking, and ongoing accounting are discussed separately unless expressly included. We do not promise approvals or a fixed completion date.

Common questions

Do I need to choose a jurisdiction before speaking with QBS?

No. Bring your business idea and operating requirements. These give the discussion a useful starting point before you commit to a setup route.

Can you help if I already have a setup proposal?

Yes. We can discuss the proposal and the questions you need answered, then agree whether QBS can support the remaining work.

Does company formation include a bank account or visa?

Not automatically. Banking and residency assistance are separate services and need to be included explicitly in the agreed scope.

What determines the setup cost?

The work involved, selected route, third-party charges, and additional services affect the total. A quotation should distinguish professional support from external charges.
