  • How to obtain a professional license with an LLC structure in a free zone?
  • Mon 05 Sep 2022 | By : admin
UAE is the business hub and undeniably has made a presence across the world as it offers a myriad of opportunities and benefits. Dubai is one of the most desirable locations around the world to start a business in the free zone.  Dubai is highly developed and offers huge benefits as they have world-class infrastructures, global connectivity, a flourishing economy, and many more. The UAE freezone can easily accommodate foreign investors as they can set up their businesses and retain a series of benefits.

What is a limited liability company in the free zone?

The free zone establishment or free zone company is one of the limited liability companies which is formed and governed by the rules and regulations of the free zone.  The free zone has two company structures for the businesses such as
  • Free zone establishment limited liability company.
  • Free zone company limited liability company.
The Free zone establishment limited liability company has a single shareholder and the whole free zone company has multiple shareholders. The structure of the free zone LLC in Dubai and other emirates also means that you can only take the losses up to the amount which you have invested in the company, not more than that.  The professional and commercial trade license means that the free zone company structure is going to be LLC by default. For the mainland, this isn’t possible. Freezone companies can easily retain a credit letter with the bank in which the investor has an account.

Who can retain a professional license in the free zone?

The professional license is issued to a series of individuals who are in the service sector. Whole businesses require individuals to use their energy and intellectual thoughts for obtaining a professional license. The professional trade license in Dubai is offered to management consultancies, design agencies, artisans, service providers, and much more.
