Types of Trade Licenses in Dubai
In Dubai, selecting the right trade license is crucial for the smooth operation of your business. CoHub provides guidance on the different types of licenses issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED) to ensure that your business is compliant with local regulations. Here’s an overview of the key trade licenses available:
- Professional License For individuals or companies offering professional services like consulting, legal advice, or accounting.
- Commercial License Required for businesses involved in buying or selling goods, including both wholesale and retail trading activities.
- Industrial License Necessary for businesses engaged in manufacturing or industrial activities, such as production, segregation, and fabrication of products.
- General Trading License Allows businesses to trade in a wide range of goods and provides flexibility to engage in various trading activities.
- E-Commerce License Designed for businesses that operate online, allowing them to sell goods or services via electronic networks or digital platforms.
Types of Business Locations and Corresponding Licenses
- Mainland License Issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED), this license is required for businesses operating within Dubai's mainland. It allows trading anywhere in the UAE and direct interaction with the local market but involves approvals from various government entities.
- Free Zone License Provided by the authority governing a specific Free Zone, this license permits operation within that zone and offers benefits like full foreign ownership and tax exemptions. However, it typically limits business activities to within the Free Zone or internationally.
- Offshore License Used for setting up offshore companies primarily for international business. This license provides confidentiality and tax benefits but does not allow for physical office space or trading within the UAE.
