Dubai Representative Office License

As per the Commercial Companies Law, Representative offices in UAE can be 100% owned by foreign nationals, provided a local service agent is appointed. THE NEXT ERA GROUP OF COMPANIES will provide the advantage of corporate partnership acting as the corporate local service agent.

However, a representative office can only promote its parent company’s activities, i.e. gathering information and soliciting orders and projects to be performed by the company’s head office.

For this license one must have an office space in Dubai. Next Era can help you to identify such premises.
