Hi Ray
you have to get a trade licence which has to be renewed each year, if you do a lot of the work yourself DMCC will help you through it they are on 1st floor Almas Tower JLT , set up your company in the free zone which DMCC will do for you, i think 50,000dhs is about right , i have a flexidesk office which i dont use, for 16 hours a month which is the minimum you can get away with its 150sq ft , but work from homemthats about 15,000dhs per year , its very expensive to set your company up and a lot of paperwork involved, do go and see DMCC they are very good and you just walk inn take a ticket wait your turn and see someone, good luck and if you need more help just yell

regards Ian

Hi Ray
I arrived on the 6th June ,my company are in the UK i set an branch up in the Free Zone, if you set a buisness up in Dubai you have to have a local sponser, DMCC will become your sponser but you will be in free Zone ,its much easier to get a trade licence,
where are you in Dubai, could meet up and have a beer and i can run you through everything, i think Mcgettingans in JLT is a good irish bar been a few times serve good beers, fancy a pint and a chat about it let me know, my wife is due over in abaout 3 weeks time

hope to catch you soon

let me know if you fancy a pint and a chat

regards Ian
