Mainland Company Formation in UAE; FAQs

There are many differences between a mainland company and other forms of business setup in Ajman. Firstly, Mainland companies are allowed to do business anywhere in the UAE and outside the UAE.

Previously foreign investors or entrepreneurs were not allowed to form a business in the UAE mainland with 100% ownership. It was mandatory to have a local sponsor with 51% of company shares allotted to them. This obligation has been revoked as per the new UAE company law. This allows foreign entrepreneurs to own 100% of their company shares in the UAE mainland.

Another major advantage differentiating mainland companies from others is the office space requirement and setup. Physical office space is required to obtain a mainland business setup license in Ajman. Mainland businesses have the advantage of setting up office spaces anywhere that suits them.

Mainland companies also do not have any restrictions when it comes to visa eligibility. The number of visas issued is directly proportional to the area of workspace/office space that the company has.

UAE mainland companies also have business aids, tax exemptions, and other benefits in compliance with the latest laws.
