WhatsApp quoteChoosing Dubai mainland gives you a licence that landlords, government departments and large corporate clients recognise without a second thought. A Dubai mainland licence, released by the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET), lets your company trade anywhere in the UAE, bid for government work and open as many branches as you need. For most clients, for Bangladeshi entrepreneurs, the UAE is around 5 hours from Dhaka, 2 hours ahead of the UAE, and Bengali and English are both common in UAE business circles. As we tell every client, cleaning & Facilities Management in Dubai means commercial and residential cleaning, maintenance and integrated facilities management, and it is licensed as a commercial activity.
Why Dubai
Among the strengths of a Dubai mainland licence are unrestricted UAE-wide trading and Government and corporate tenders, which is why local service businesses gravitate here. Popular districts for a Dubai mainland office include Business Bay, Deira, Bur Dubai, Jumeirah Lakes Towers and Al Quoz, each with different rent levels and customer footfall.
