The Local Service Agent Appointment Contract shall regulate the relationship between the two parties. (d) Depending on the business activity, this can be an LLC (Limited Liability Company) if 51% ownership is given to a UAE National or Company. (e) Existing companies can only invest in a new Civil Company if they reflect the same business activity. Option 2. Commercial License (Provision of physical services or trading activities) (a) The establishment of a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in Dubai in accordance with the Companies Law. This is the most widely used commercial entity for companies with foreign ownership wishing to conduct commercial activities and trade in the UAE (b) Each of the partners shall only be liable to the extent of their share capital in the company upon incorporation as stated in the executed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). (c) Under the UAE Companies Law, a minimum of 51% ownership must be held by a UAE National (Local Partner), and 49% ownership will be that of the foreign shareholder. However, the law permits the issuance of constitutional documents for an LLC to contain provisions designed to protect the interests of the foreign minority shareholder, including but not limited to the profits distribution, assets entitlement, appointment of directors/managers, powers of administration, and influence in decision making. (d) To comply with the provisions of the UAE Companies Law, we propose that CREATIVE ZONE General Trading or a CREATIVE ZONE recommended UAE national act as your “Local Partner”. Option 3. Branch or Representative Office (a) (b) (c) 3.0 3.1 It is stipulated under the UAE Companies Law that 100% foreign ownership is allowed provided that a local service agent is appointed. A Branch office is a legal extension of the parent company and is permitted to secure contracts and conduct business activities, which are similar to those of its parents company subject to the approval of the UAE Ministry of Economy. A Representative office is established to promote the parent company’s activities. The number of employees allowed under this company is limited to 4.

Creative Zone can offer you a UAE Corporate Shareholder rather than an individual UAE national to act as a Nominee Partner. The 51% shareholding will fall under this new UAE entity, CREATIVE ZONE General Trading LLC, rather than an individual. The main benefit of having a Corporate Shareholder is succession planning. Companies often worry about coming into the market and selecting a local partner who may leave the UAE, change his mind, or at worst case, pass away during the course of the year leaving the company and it’s shareholders hanging. With a corporate entity, the contractual terms remain in place so it gives more stability to the arrangement than having an individual national being the local partner. 3.4.1 Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 8 Day 11 Day 12 Day 13 Day 14 Day 16 Day 16 Timelines and Procedure in business days (The below is applicable to General Trading and Commercial licenses that do not require external approvals) Submit all requirements and make payment for Sponsor / PRO fees.
