Approval documents

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.
  • We hold no Dubai DET record for this activity, so treat mainland as unverified here rather than unavailable.
  • Supreme Council of Energy clearance is required before the licence issues, which breaks any advertised same-week timeline.

Also catalogued elsewhere

The same activity name appears in other authority catalogues we track. This is a name match, not a legal equivalence, and Dubai Setup Index does not file in these zones.

Can I add more activities to a Fuel Supply Services licence later?

Usually yes, as a licence amendment, subject to the authority's rules and any extra approval attached to the new line.

Does this activity need third-party approval?

Yes. Supreme Council of Energy must clear the activity before the licence issues, so build that step into your timeline.
