UAE: 71% cut in charges for setting up new business in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi simplifies the procedure for setting up a new business within its territory and it is reconfirmed as one of the favorite destinations among foreign investors. The announcement comes from the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED) which has significantly reduced the procedure, in terms of cost and time, for those who intend to invest in the emirate, by reducing by 71% the requirements needed for starting a new business on site. The reform, which is part of the "Investor Journey Program", comes into effect from August 1st 2021 and allows over 93% of business activities to receive a commercial license within six minutes only. Additionally, all license issuance and renewal fees will be reduced to AED 1,000 (approximately € 230.00). This initiative was anticipated at the beginning of July by the establishment of the Abu Dhabi Residents Office (ADRO), whose main task is to attract new entrepreneurs and to provide any assistance and services necessary to start-ups, in order to create a totally favorable economic environment for them. Sameh Abdulla Al Qubaisi, Executive Director of ADDAD, finally assured that the collaboration between ADDAD and the Abu Dhabi Digital Authority (ADDA) will increase and improve the commercial license services on TAMM, which will provide all essential services to set up a new activity. This program, adopted in an already economically competitive environment such as that of Abu Dhabi, will inevitably strengthen the private sector of the UAE’s largest emirate.

UAE: What is a “lifetime investor visa?”
Dubai: Are you looking to set up a company in the United Arab Emirates? “Get a Lifetime Investor Visa!” is an offer that will be made to you by several business setup consultants in the UAE. But what does it really mean? So when business incorporation companies offer a “lifetime visa” or “lifetime investor visa”, they essentially offer to help with the process of paying the visa renewal costs on your behalf, every two or three years. Because? Because they can cover the administrative cost for that within the other charges you pay, which are incurred when and when your business license is renewed. The offering is essentially a marketing tactic employed by business configuration consultants, offering a package of services, according to Sirajudeen Ummer, head of public relations with Dubai-based First Gate Business Services. “Some business centers provide such offers, as visa renewal costs are quite low, especially for the three-year investor visa. Centers pay that cost, instead of the client, and upon renewal they will receive office rent, sponsorship fee and other renewal costs from the client. This is how they take into account the visa renewal costs for the client within their services, “Ummer said. With the visa renewal costs, including the Emirati identification application, for an investor visa three years at around Dh845 in Dubai, this is a cost they can easily absorb, Ummer added.

Dubai: stai cercando di creare una società negli Emirati Arabi Uniti? “Ottieni un visto per investitori a vita!” è un’offerta che ti verrà fatta da diversi consulenti per la configurazione aziendale negli Emirati Arabi Uniti. Ma cosa significa veramente? Quindi, quando le società di costituzione di un’impresa offrono un “visto a vita” o un “visto per investitori a vita”, si offrono essenzialmente di aiutare con il processo di pagamento dei costi di rinnovo del visto per tuo conto, ogni due o tre anni. Perché? Perché possono coprire il costo amministrativo per quello all’interno degli altri addebiti che paghi, che vengono sostenuti quando e quando la tua licenza commerciale viene rinnovata. L’offerta è essenzialmente una tattica di marketing impiegata dai consulenti per la configurazione aziendale, che offre un pacchetto di servizi, secondo Sirajudeen Ummer, responsabile delle pubbliche relazioni con First Gate Business Services con sede a Dubai. “Alcuni centri d’affari forniscono tali offerte, poiché i costi per il rinnovo del visto sono piuttosto bassi, soprattutto per il visto per investitori di tre anni. I centri pagano quel costo, invece del cliente, e al momento del rinnovo riceveranno l’affitto dell’ufficio, la quota di sponsorizzazione e altri costi di rinnovo dal cliente. Questo è il modo in cui tengono conto dei costi di rinnovo del visto per il cliente all’interno dei loro servizi “, ha detto Ummer. Con i costi di rinnovo del visto, inclusa la domanda di identificazione degli Emirati, per un visto per investitori di tre anni a circa Dh845 a Dubai, questo è un costo che possono facilmente assorbire, ha aggiunto Ummer Per visualizzare l’articolo completo, visitare il sito Web: Gulfnews
