Your video guided me to SPC. They are fantastic. So many scammers out there but SPC went from payment to trade liscence in 33 minutes. Yes, 33 minutes - not a word of a lie. Thanks for the hot tip!
Hi Mabel, just wanted to say thank you for the hot tip! We just set up our company with SPC and the service & communication has been excellent - just as you advised 😊
Thank you Mabel for your advice. I have also used SPC to set up my company 😊 Do you know any good companies where I can get public liability insurance please?
Hello Mabel.. please do share the reference of the person from SPC you worked with on the FZ license. I wanted to set up a software company and I have been recommended DSO. I want to know more about SPC and how it compares with DSO
Great video! Thanks a lot. I'm currently in contact with RAKEZ and SPC and the impression quite fits to what you are talking about. Was leaning towards SPC and after your video I'll definitely take that. Prices went up a bit, but they are still lower than RAKEZ and while I had to contact RAKEZ twice before they contacted me, SPC gives you 10 seconds, before the first WhatsApp message arrives. Great communication, great information and I never had the feeling they pushed me. I like them! And thanks again for your great video. We'll be office mates soon :-D
Hi mabel . Thanks a lot for clear explanation. I m in touch with spc team . They are very good and so fast . They said business account not required to open can operate with personal account . Do you have idea about it .
Thank you for the video, could you kindly answer the following as I am new to this: 1. Is UAE Corporate Tax applicable in the DIFC free zone or Companies registered in the DIFC are exempt from paying any corporate income tax? 2. Is unemployment insurance a legal requirement for DIFC free zone? I read the following, is this correct: Contribution to the unemployment insurance program is currently optional for DIFC employees. Dubai International Financial Center have clarified that employees of companies registered in these free zones are not required to register and subscribe to the unemployment insurance scheme. However, employees in these free zones can still choose to register and subscribe.
Hi there thanks for the valuable information I am starting my online business in the uae how long does it takes to get business bank account with SPS e-commerce General trading license? And which bank do you recommend for faster processing?
Hi , I have a question , as me starting my own business in UAE , when it comes to the renting space for a business , is it a extra fee of renting a office , or do it come with the package? & do some come fully furnish when you arrive it’s ready for you ? Or do you have to set it up yourself . Please answer
Hi is DMCC site legit? And good to use? As I'm looking to get a company up and running in dubai in a freezone. But I only make videos on youtube so the minimum requirements would be helpful Thanks
Hi Mabel! I hope you are prospering with your business. I have one question. I want to form a freezone company, and certainly I don't need to hire any people, etc. I only have concerns regarding Bank accounts opening. Actually I will be working outside UAE, from my home country but I want all my payments in UAE. So, that would be helpful if you can guide: 1. What's your experience/how the process looks like with business bank accounts. 2. What is an initial deposit -- or expenses to be expected to just open a business account. Be Happy!
Hello! I recommend you to try Wio bank. They are a new service, online only, although they will need to deliver the card in UAE I think. The set up process was easy and fast
@@mabelgoulden872 Thanks Mabel! Actually, I don't need a virtual bank as it won't support Stripe and my whole purpose to create a UAE company is to get a stripe account. I have made a calculation how much it can take to get setup a full company in UAE freezone and get a bank, and it's estimated $30k. This is a safe route and a long run plan. Yet I am preparing for it. Thanks for being helpful.
@@disruptr1 No, I don't know exactly. It is not even 30k. It's the capital that you have to keep in the bank like $20K and then you will be able to open a bank account and it is returnable. Otherwise annually cost could be around $2000 to $6000
Hi Mabel, Really appreciate you distilling this information for us. By any chance can you get me in touch with someone from SPC. I've tried contacting them but to no avail. Thank you very much.
@@2ndTim3_1-6 no I think it’s about 8 or 10, it just increases a little bit with each visa. Do you want me to connect you to them and they can answer your Qs?
Hi Mable. Very helpful video, thanks. I am going through the procces of setting up my business in UAE ( SPC) remotely, I hired an office to do that for me and consulting me. They are asking for 41 AED for 2 years license and immegration crad, change of status etc... And opening a business bank account. What do you think? Is it fair deal?
Hi Thanks for sharing your experience. I also want to start my own business. My profession Graphic Design and printing. Can I get freelance work permit from here?
Hey Mabel, Nice breakdown. I feel sorry for your original experience and Indeed RAKEZ may not be ideal for digital Entrepreneurs and Dubai/Sharjah has much better options. But its not that RAKEZ doesn't have any value, I setup clients in RAKEZ only when they are Industrial in Nature, they want to setup a factory and need 100 employees. RAKEZ is best suited for that because RAK has a port and cheap land cost & lower rent for labor accommodation vs the industrial FreeZone in Dubai called JAFZA. Perhaps being use to dealing with Industries they (RAKEZ) are not optimized or know the language of digital Entrepreneurs.
I’m sure that’s the case, yes. What frustrated me is that I came across them via a “Women in Business” promo offer, and by the end it was nothing but awful customer service
Hey thanks for watching! Yes definitely still recommend. My boyfriend set up with them too and we’ve both had a great experience. DM me on IG if you have more Qs. Link is in the description 😁

Hey! Wish I could help but this is an industry I don't know much about - but my suggestion would be to join a FB group such as brits in dubai and ask there :)
As a non- resident you can only open a savings account but will not be given a check book. You can only deposit and withdraw from atm's. Other banks will ask for passport, copy of photos, documentations, letter from company or sponsor etc. Hope that helped you out a little. 💫

Which is better for ecommerce is it free zone or mainland
I think free zone it’s much easier for foreign ownership
which is the best free zone for import and export in UAE

Hi it really depends but if you use the freezone I have mentioned then it is a mandatory extra fee depending on size of your team. And it’s furnished
I'm curious to know if it's feasible for a company registered in a Free Zone to offer digital marketing services to Mainland companies.
Yes possible
how much will it cost to setup a company like digital marketing and online i.t services . which dont need a physical office . with 1 visa only
What about yearly cost to mantain company and how to get bank acc. Company with no bank acc is not usable...
I recommend WIo bank
Was bank account tough for an SPC company? Have you tried Wio?
Not tough at all! Wio is great I use them
