- We hold no Dubai DET record for this activity, so treat mainland as unverified here rather than unavailable.

## 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.
