How we run a remote setup

  1. Video consultation and written recommendation.
  2. Documents collected by secure upload.
  3. Identity verification by video, where the authority allows it.
  4. Incorporation documents signed electronically, or by a power of attorney for mainland steps.
  5. Licence delivered digitally.
  6. One visit of three to five working days for the visa medical, biometrics and bank meeting.

Jurisdictions that suit remote setup

Several Dubai and northern emirates free zones, including IFZA, Meydan Free Zone, SPC Free Zone and Shams. Mainland setups can be handled through a Power of attorney.

Common questions

Can the bank account be opened remotely?

Some banks and digital banks accept video meetings. Many still prefer an in-person meeting, which we schedule during your visit.
