Mainland Company Formation

Establishing a mainland enterprise in Dubai allows you to trade freely across the local UAE market and execute lucrative government contracts. We assist with initial name reservation, initial trade approvals, office space registration (Ejari), and final Department of Economy and Tourism (DET/DED) license issuance, giving you 100% foreign ownership opportunities across commercial and professional sectors.

CABIO helps you select the ideal UAE Freezone jurisdiction (such as IFZA, DMCC, Meydan, or DAFZA), handles company registration, drafts legal articles, and secures your trade license with optimal visa allocations.

Corporate Sponsor & Nominee Services

While 100% foreign ownership is available for most activities, specific commercial sectors or legal structures still benefit from local corporate sponsorship. CABIO provides fully vetted, reliable local corporate nominee services that protect your operational control, financial assets, and equity ownership through legally binding investor protection agreements.
