UAE Company Formation
Free Zone or mainland — we identify the right structure for your business activity, prepare the documents, and register your company with a clear route to a corporate bank account afterwards.
Free Zone
100% foreign ownership, from AED 12,900 for a licence package (e.g. IFZA), registration typically in 3–4 business days, fully online.
Mainland
From AED 24,000 via DED/DET, 100% foreign ownership available for most business activities since 2021, registration typically in 1 to 3 weeks.
Corporate Tax & VAT
9% federal corporate tax on profit above AED 375,000 per year (0% below); Qualifying Free Zone Persons may retain 0% subject to conditions. VAT is 5%.
Corporate Bank Account Opening
OmniTrust AE assesses the shareholder profile, business activity, expected transactions and source of funds before selecting suitable UAE banks, prepares the KYC file, and coordinates the application.
Free Zone & Mainland Companies
Both structures can apply for a corporate account — required documents and the bank's compliance approach differ by structure and business activity.
Timing
Fast-track corporate account cases may start from approximately 5–6 business days; standard cases typically take around 2–4 weeks depending on the bank and compliance review.
No Guaranteed Approval
Final approval is decided independently by each bank's KYC and compliance review — no adviser can guarantee a bank account.
Company Formation + Corporate Bank Account
Need a UAE company and a corporate bank account together? We coordinate both as a single process, from jurisdiction selection through to account activation.
UAE Residency & Golden Visa
Residency through company formation, employment, real estate investment, or the 10-year Golden Visa — we advise on the route that fits your situation and coordinate the process.
Golden Visa
Long-term UAE residency (up to 10 years) available through qualifying real estate investment, business ownership or professional qualifications, without an employer sponsor.
Golden Visa →Work Visa & Investor Visa
Standard employment-based residency, and a residency route for investors in UAE real estate.
Work Visa →UAE Residency Overview
A full comparison of the available residency routes for founders, employees and investors.
UAE Residency →Mortgage Advisory
Bank financing for a property purchase from the outset of the deal, or financing for the final handover payment on an off-plan purchase bought in instalments from a developer.
International Relocation
Beyond the UAE, we advise on residency abroad — including the Spain Digital Nomad Visa, France residency and Monaco residency — for clients relocating internationally alongside their UAE business.

Frequently Asked Questions
Company Formation & Corporate Banking in the UAE
Yes. 100% foreign ownership is available in Free Zones, and since 2021 for most mainland business activities too. A local partner requirement remains only for a limited number of strategic activities.
Yes, this is a common scenario. Banks will assess the business activity, shareholder profile and expected turnover even without a trading history — a clear description of the planned activity and source of funds helps the application.
IFZA and most Free Zones — 3–4 business days, fully online. Mainland — 1 to 3 weeks, accounting for trade name approval, activity approval and office lease.
No adviser can guarantee a bank's final approval. OmniTrust AE can assess the profile, prepare the KYC package, recommend suitable banks and coordinate the process, but the final decision is made independently by the bank.
