Tourism & Hospitality in the UAE for Greeks

Why Dubai

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. Government and semi-government tenders in Dubai require a mainland licence and Chamber of Commerce membership, both of which GoldenKey arranges.

How Dubai works with GoldenKey

1. 
   Step 1

   Activity and legal form

   We pick the precise activity codes from the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) list and settle on the legal form — normally a LLC, or a sole establishment for individual professionals. This is also the point at which we answer any question specific to opening a hospitality business in the UAE as a Greek founder.

2. 
   Step 2

   Trade name and initial approval

   GoldenKey reserves your trade name and obtains initial approval from the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET), including any external approvals your activity needs.

3. 
   Step 3

   Office, MOA and submission

   Day to day, after the MOA is signed and the office tenancy registered, GoldenKey lodges the full application with the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET). Nothing is submitted for opening a hospitality business in the UAE as a Greek founder until you have reviewed and approved it.

   Step 4

   Licence, Chamber and immigration

   In practice, the Dubai mainland licence is released, Chamber membership activated, and we open the establishment and labour files so visa processing can start.
