Before licenceIFZA (Dubai)

Approval must be obtained after the license is issued; however, they must present an undertaking letter to licensing department mentioning that they will get the approval within 90 days. (template attached) The client must approach the department themselves.

Free zone or mainland

  • IFZA lists this activity; Ajman Free Zone does not carry it under the same name, so confirm the Ajman catalogue before switching lanes.
  • Dubai mainland under DET lets you invoice UAE mainland clients directly, but it expects Ejari-registered premises and runs longer than a free-zone desk package.
  • Dubai Civil Defence (DCD) clearance is required before the licence issues, which breaks any advertised same-week timeline.
