Setting Up Your Business in the UAE : What you need to know

The UAE is one of the world’s top destinations for businesses looking to expand, invest, or establish themselves in a thriving market. With its tax advantages, strategic location, and world-class infrastructure, it’s no surprise that many entrepreneurs and companies choose the UAE as their base of operations.

At Honoré Immo, we make it easy for you to set up your business in the UAE by offering a comprehensive range of services designed to streamline the process. From company formation in one of the UAE’s Free Zones to corporate bank account setup and VAT treatment services, we’ve got you covered.

Here’s how we can assist you:

1. Free Zone Company Formation
The UAE offers several Free Zones that provide an excellent environment for foreign investors. These zones offer tax exemptions, 100% foreign ownership, and full repatriation of profits. Our expert legal team will guide you through the process of setting up your Free Zone company, ensuring compliance with all local laws and regulations.

Whether you’re starting a small business or setting up a large-scale operation, we’ll help you choose the right Free Zone for your business needs. Our team will handle all the legal documentation, licensing, and approvals necessary to get your company up and running in no time.

Our team works closely with trusted banking partners to assist you in opening a corporate account quickly and smoothly. Whether you’re new to the UAE banking system or need help navigating it, we make the process as hassle-free as possible.

Having a local corporate bank account is not only necessary for smooth business operations, but it also enhances your company’s credibility and helps you manage finances more effectively.

3. VAT Treatment Services
Understanding VAT (Value Added Tax) can be a challenge, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the UAE’s tax framework. Our accounting team is here to guide you through VAT registration, compliance, and filing. We help ensure your business meets all tax requirements and benefit from proper VAT treatment.

Our services include VAT registration, monthly or quarterly VAT filing, and advice on VAT-exempt or VAT-reduced transactions—ensuring that you optimize your tax position while staying fully compliant with UAE tax laws.
