Starting a business in the UAE is one of the most exciting decisions an entrepreneur can make. With its strategic location, tax advantages, and thriving economy, Dubai and other Emirates continue to attract investors from across the globe. Yet, the incorporation journey often feels overwhelming—navigating licenses, free zones, shareholder agreements, visas, and compliance.
At Crevaty, we specialize in turning this complex process into a smooth, structured, and stress-free experience. This case study highlights how we helped an international client establish their business presence in the UAE—and why so many businesses trust Crevaty as their long-term partner.
The Challenge
Our client, a European tech entrepreneur, wanted to expand operations into Dubai to serve Middle East and Asia markets. Their main challenges were:
- Understanding the right jurisdiction: Mainland vs. Free Zone vs. Offshore.
- Activity selection & licensing: Choosing activities that align with both business goals and UAE regulations.
- Visa planning: Securing residence visas for key team members and dependents.
- Bank account opening: Meeting KYC/AML requirements and selecting a banking partner.
- Time efficiency: Completing incorporation within tight timelines.
Our Approach
Crevaty’s team guided the client through a step-by-step incorporation strategy:
- Feasibility & Advisory – We conducted an initial consultation to understand their business model, capital structure, and market plans.
