Bizvisor can guide you through the complete process of e-commerce company formation in Dubai, UAE. 

No formal qualifications are necessary to get an e-commerce license in Dubai and the UAE. Bizvisor can walk you through the complete e-commerce company registration procedure, which includes the following:

  • Advising on the best jurisdiction in which to establish your e-commerce firm, and helping you decide between a mainland or free zone e-commerce license
  • Creating and submitting documents for your e-commerce business setup. This includes submitting an application to the appropriate government with the proposed company name, business strategy, ownership, management of data & more.
  • The company must choose acceptable business premises after receiving preliminary clearance from the licensing authorities. Serviced offices for digital service firms, functional offices, and warehouses for organizations with fulfillment centers are among the different business premises you can choose from.
  • The authorities will next require signatures from shareholders or authorized corporate representatives. The e-commerce lease will be granted after the e-commerce application and company lease are submitted to the authorities. The following stage for your e-commerce firm is to apply for your business manager’s residency permission and Emirates ID card.
  • After completing the prerequisites, Bizvisor’s skilled team will help you submit an application to create a business bank account.
