Service Overview
Professional Firm Setup in UAE is an ideal option for individuals and specialists who wish to provide professional services under their own expertise. A Professional Firm is a company established under the UAE Civil Code that practices a profession as its primary objective, where the incorporators rely on their professional skills, knowledge, and activities rather than generating profits from the business activities of others associated with them. Through Professional Firm Setup in UAE and Firm Registration, professionals can legally establish their businesses and offer specialized services. Professional Firms in Dubai are formed between qualified professionals and are permitted to conduct only non-commercial activities. In a Professional Firm setting up in Dubai, 100% foreign ownership can be enjoyed by the incorporators. Such companies are permitted to engage in professional or artistic activities and have the complete independence of conducting business. Also, a UAE local national must be appointed as a local partner, but he/she must not have any direct involvement in the line of activities and must be remunerated a percentage of the profits or in lump sum, the company’s turnover revenue. At ABICO, our primary objective is to help our clients setup their professional firms successfully in one of the seven Emirate states and reap international profits. We provide end-to-end support for professional license acquisition, agent coordination, and business setup.
