## Third-party approvals

### Dubai Civil Defence (DCD)

Authority’s process note: 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.
