Everything to Know About Opening a Branch in Dubai

July 19, 2018

Foreign companies looking to open a branch in Dubai can retain full ownership over their business in Dubai by registering a branch office or a representative office. However, as per the guidelines issued by the UAE government, to open a branch in Dubai, every investor company is required to find and appoint a local service agent who is a UAE national or a company wholly owned by UAE citizens. These local sponsors assist in getting your visas, labour card, immigration cards and such other important documentation but are not involved in the working of your business. Our local agents in Dubai can assist you with foreign company registration in Dubai.

How to Open a Branch in Dubai?

Step 1: Trade Name Reservation – The first crucial step is to appoint a local agent as mentioned above. This local agent will then first approach the Department of Economic Development (DED) and reserve a trade name for the branch office you wish to open.

Step 2: Initial Approval by Ministry of Economy– After applying for the reservation of a trade name, the local agent will then apply for an initial approval from the Ministry of Economy (MOE) to open a branch in Dubai. For this, the following documents are needed to be submitted:

Proof of trade name reservation

Application forms for registration

Registration and Licence application forms issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED)

Memorandum of Association (MoA) of the parent company (notarized)

Articles of Association (AoA) of the parent company (notarized)

A power of attorney (POA) for the local director

A copy of the passport and the naturalization book of the local service agent

A passport copy of the director

A no-objection letter issued by the parent company

A copy of the Certificate of Incorporation of the parent company (notarized)

A board resolution for opening a branch in Dubai by the foreign company’s management

Note: The MoA, AoA and the Certificate of Incorporation must be translated into Arabic and duly notarized.

Step 3: Obtain License from Department of Economic Development – Once the initial approval has been obtained from the Ministry of Economy, the next step for the local agent is to apply for obtaining a commercial license from the Department of Economic Development. The documents needed for this include the following:

The approval needed from the Ministry of Economy

A statement mentioning the business activities that can be carried out, to be issued by the parent company

Last two years’ audited financial statements of the parent company

Copies of all the documents submitted earlier to get the initial approval from the Ministry of Economy

A copy of the property lease agreement of the branch office in Dubai

Commercial License v/s Non-Trading Representative Office License

A foreign company may obtain a trading branch office license (commercial license) or a non-trading representative office license. The main difference between the two is that with a commercial license, the foreign entity can carry out all the commercial activities covered under the trading license and carried out by the parent company. On the other hand, in the case of a representative office in Dubai, you are not allowed to carry out any commercial activities and can only use the office and the license for marketing and promoting the products or services of the foreign parent company. Depending on your requirement, you can either set up a branch office or a representative office in Dubai. The procedure for setting up both are largely the same.

Many firms in UAE and Saudi opening up and planning to expand

July 17, 2018

The finance heads in UAE have forecasted a huge revival in the economy and plan to increase the level of their investments and funds in their businesses.

The companies in the Middle East are very positive about the upward economic development trend seen for the coming year. The leaders are keen to invest even more in their enterprises, as per a survey report by 2018 Global Business & Spending Outlook.

About 90 percent of the people who took the survey foresee sizeable financial expansion in the country’s economy, which is directly in line with world-wide trend or average of 85 percent. This means that company formation in UAE and company formation in Saudi Arabia is a viable option in this scenario.

The survey also proved that almost three-fourth of the region’s total finance heads are planning to enhance their spending and investment level by almost 6 percent or more. As per the statistics, there are five countries, which top the list in terms of growth of investment in the world; these are China (90 percent), Japan (87 percent), UAE (84 percent), Saudi Arabia (83 percent), and Russia (80 percent).

This survey was a study conducted by American Express and Institutional Investor and was based on an assessment of almost 870 senior executives like CFOs or senior management in the finance function of various companies from more than 21 nations, which had annual revenues of over $500 million (Dh1.83 billion). This study had respondents not only from the Middle East region (representing about 17 percent), but also from North America (about 18 percent), from Latin America (11 percent), from Europe (32 percent), and from the Asia Pacific (21 percent).

Findings proved that the uncertainty in the social, economic, and political environment is the new normal. However, about 73 percent of the survey respondents were of the view that the domestic risk or economy’s fluctuations did not affect their overall spending or investment plans.

But on the other hand, more than 77 percent of the respondents felt that they wanted to expand their business-level risk management procedures or bring in improvements in their processes. However, in case of any unexpected economic turns and turmoil, 80 percent of the executives would in most likelihood move their enterprise to some lower-risk location.

Focus on the customer

The study finds that a huge percentage of the business executives in the Middle East will chase goals that are linked directly to the core organic growth of their enterprise. About 77 percent of the respondents in the Middle East region thus gave top priority to meeting customer needs in a better way.

Most of them are planning deliberate moves like exploring and getting into newer markets (66 percent) and taking steps towards innovation and business transformation (44 percent). In fact, the data shows that the executives in Saudi Arabia are the most eager ones wanting to expand and penetrate into newer markets (83 percent). Some categories of high-priority spending in the region include mobile technology, transportation and logistics (31 percent), and entertainment and travel industry (30 percent).

Growth in the job market

This will also lead to a substantial increase in the job opportunities and workforce in the Middle East companies in the coming year. About 73 percent of the respondents expected at least a 6 per cent raise in the total number of employees in their companies. Though organisations plan on doing so, the respondents felt that administration, sales, and marketing were the functions, which were the most difficult to hire and also retain (47 percent in each category).

Companies in the region are forecasted to enhance using more of temporary or part-time workers (59 percent) and also on-shore employees (43 percent) by moving the overseas positions or roles to domestic locations, which was contrary to outsourcing and offshoring (just 19 percent).

FTA Announces 20 Designated Zones Exempt From VAT

July 13, 2018

The Federal Tax Authority (FTA) revealed 20 designated free zones in the UAE that would be exempt from VAT which was recently introduced in the country. This move has brought a major relief and clarity for the companies operating in the free trade zones. With welcoming policies like these, UAE can expect increased growth as more organizations look for business setup in Dubai free zone.

VAT Free Designated Zones

As per the announcement, these 20 free trade zones would be generally considered to be outside of the UAE when it comes to the application of VAT. According to the UAE’s VAT law, the transfer of goods between these designated zones is now tax-free. However, such goods must not have been used or altered during the transfer process. Another point to consider is that such transfer must be according to the rules for customs suspension per GCC Common Customs Law. In a case where the conditions for transfer of goods are not met, the FTA may require a guarantee. This guarantee should be equivalent to the tax liability of the goods to be transferred.

The zone managers are required to follow internal procedures for keeping, storing, and processing of goods. The purchase of goods inside a free zone for incorporation into another unconsumed product within the same zone will not attract VAT. However, the movement of supply of goods into a zone from the rest of the country will not be covered under this rule and attract VAT.

There are total 45 free trade zones in UAE and out of these 27 are present in Dubai. From the 20 designated free trade zones, 7 are present in Dubai. This means 75% of the free zones will still have VAT applicable to them. Luckily, some of the most important free zones like JAFZA and DAFZA are included in the list of designated free zones. This relaxation has led to many newer businesses to consider company formation in JAFZA.

In addition to this, the Cabinet has also approved zero VAT on the supply of certain medications and medical equipment which are registered with the Ministry of Health (MoH). However, this does not include services related to medical equipment. Both these decisions will work retroactively from 1 January 2018.

List of Free Zones by FTA

Here is the complete list of Free Zones announced by the FTA as per the Annex to the Cabinet Decision No. (59) Of 2017:

Abu Dhabi:

Free Trade Zone of Khalifa Port
Abu Dhabi Airport Free Zone
Khalifa Industrial Zone

Dubai:

Jebel Ali Free Zone (North-South)
Dubai Cars and Automotive Zone (DUCAMZ)
