Why MainLand Company Formation In Dubai?
Establishing a business in Dubai’s mainland district is regulated by Federal Law, with Mainland Companies being the most advanced corporate entities. It is a good choice to set up a usiness in Dubai’s mainland because of two main reasons.
- Strategic Location: Firstly, the UAE's location is strategic in the Middle East, making it a valuable location for business investors to expand their operations and access other GCC nations.
- Economic policies: Secondly, the UAE government provides various incentives to encourage company investors, such as 100% foreign ownership and no personal tax, to start business operations in various industries.
- Avoid double tax: In the UAE, if you own a company and do import-export transactions, you can sign an agreement to avoid paying taxes twice. This means you only have to pay taxes once, and not on both sides.
- Office Setup: It is easy to find office space in Dubai's mainland, which has become an increasingly popular location for business establishments.
