WhatsApp quoteA Dubai mainland licence, granted 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. A mainland company in Dubai can hold a mainland office, hire staff under MOHRE contracts and register with the Chamber of Commerce for tenders. Poland is one of the fastest-growing EU exporters to the UAE, led by furniture, cosmetics and food, which gives Polish entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Dubai licence is issued. On the ground, typical examples of this activity include dental clinic, physiotherapy centre, home healthcare and aesthetic clinic, which can in most cases sit together on one Dubai licence.
Why Dubai
For most clients, 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. A Dubai mainland company can apply for an unlimited visa quota in proportion to its office space, which free zone packages cannot match.
