Manufacture, assemble, process or package in the UAE. The license is the small part. The approvals, the warehouse and the industrial registration are the work.

UAE VAT and corporate tax are two separate registrations with two separate triggers. We work out which apply, register you with the FTA, and keep the filings on the calendar.
Learn moreDocument Attestation
The UAE is not an Apostille Convention country, so an apostille alone will not do. We run the full consular chain, ending at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Learn moreKSA General Manager Visa
To put a General Manager on the ground in Saudi Arabia, the company registers first and the person follows. We take the file from MISA registration through to the iqama.
