How to Get A Professional License In Dubai

corporate PRO services in Dubai

Dubai is one of the best places to start a business. But, just like in any location, you need to register the business and acquire some licenses before you can start operating legally. If you wish to earn or make a profit using your skills or expertise, you may need to acquire a professional license. If you’re not familiar with the process, you may consult with firms who specialise in business setup in Dubai.

 

What is a professional license?

A professional license is a type of permit issued by the Dubai Department of Economic Development (DED) to any individual or party who wishes to practice any profession legally using their skills to earn money or gain profit.

 

Unlike commercial and industrial licenses, a professional license allows 100% for foreign investors as long as they appoint a UAE national as a local service agent to look after all the legalities and formalities required to operate the business. Another condition is that the agent must not directly involve the business aside from collecting their fee. Local agents are also not allowed to represent the business or participate in managing any of the business’ profitable activities. You may consult with agents who specialise in providing corporate PRO services in Dubai to process your appointment.

 

How to get a professional license in Dubai?

The first thing you need to do before getting a license is to create a list clearly describing all your business activities. Then, you need a local agent who will take care of the formalities and documents that you need to process to get a professional license. You may look for firms who offer a range of PRO services in Dubai to help you get your license and provide other services that you will require afterward. 

 

Once you get the initial approval, you will need to reserve and pay for the name of your business. Afterward, you (or your agent) must submit all the completed documents to the DED for approval.
