Business License

The right licence type decides what your company may do. We help you choose it and handle the application from start to finish.

Licence types

Four main licences, one clear choice

Dubai issues four main types of business licence. Which one you need depends on whether you trade goods, make them, sell expertise or serve visitors.

For companies that buy, sell, import, export or trade goods and general services.

For manufacturing, processing and assembly businesses with a production facility.

For consultants, specialists and firms whose business is their expertise.

For tour operators, travel agencies and businesses serving Dubai's visitors.
