Healthcare Clinic on Abu Dhabi Mainland

Medical, dental, physiotherapy or aesthetic clinics and home healthcare services

Choosing Abu Dhabi mainland gives you a licence that landlords, government departments and large corporate clients recognise without a second thought. A mainland company in Abu Dhabi can hold a mainland office, hire staff under MOHRE contracts and register with the Chamber of Commerce for tenders. GoldenKey has licensed healthcare clinic businesses for clients in Abu Dhabi and knows which sub-activities to list so you are not asked to amend the licence later. To be clear, typical examples of this activity include dental clinic, physiotherapy centre, home healthcare and aesthetic clinic, which can usually sit together on one Abu Dhabi licence.

Why Abu Dhabi

From day one, in-Country Value (ICV) certification boosts success in government and ADNOC tenders. Day to day, popular districts for an Abu Dhabi mainland office include Al Reem Island, Khalifa City, Mussafah, Al Maryah Island and Corniche, each with different rent levels and customer footfall. For healthcare clinic, Abu Dhabi offers the office options such a business actually needs and a visa quota that can grow with the team.
