  • The Challenges of Finding the UAE National Local Partner or an Agent
  • Wed 24 Mar 2021 | By : admin
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The UAE is one of the most business-friendly destinations worldwide, which welcomes entrepreneurs to set up a business without any bias. However, finding a local UAE national who is genuine and agrees with your thought process is a tough thing for anyone coming from a different country. If you plan to set up a business in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or any other emirate first thing is to look for a local national or a partner. Finding the right national or a partner is half the battle won, which ensures that you will have long and a healthy relationship in the time to come.   It won’t be an exaggeration to say that selecting an appropriate local partner for your business will be a key ingredient towards making it is a success.

What is the role of a local partner or an agent in The UAE?

An ex-pat entrepreneur has two options when it comes to setting up a company in The UAE. He can either form a free zone or a mainland company. As per The UAE Law if an entrepreneur is a Non-GCC national and plans to set up a Limited Liability Company in the mainland it is mandatory for him to have a local partner who is also referred to as an Emirati. This law states that every UAE national entering into an agreement of local partnership with a foreign investor shall hold at least 51 percent of the shares in the company. One needs a local partner in The UAE to function in accordance with the UAE Commercial Companies Law. However, having a local partner helps you to take advantage of the exclusive benefits of setting up a limited liability company.

THE CHALLENGES OF FINDING THE UAE National Local PARTNERIs a local partner or an agent required for your business in the UAE?

According to the prevailing laws, anyone who plans or wants to start an LLC company should partner with UAE nationals. It is compulsory for a mainland company under the Limited Liability Company structure to have a local partner in UAE. The UAE offers a plethora of business options to an entrepreneur who is keen on starting a new venture in this country. However, some of the businesses such as real estate, contracting, general trading, cargo and logistics, fuel and petrochemical industries, cleaning equipment industries, textiles, jeweler business, cosmetic and perfume business need to have a local partner in UAE in order to function.
