Advantages of setting up a mainland company
- Location flexibility and zero trade restrictions
- Broad working scope
- Access to lucrative government contracts
A Dubai mainland company enjoys unrestricted trade with other businesses and has no geographical limitations. Moreover, mainland companies can provide services to the government or engage in direct trade with consumers across the entire UAE. Setting up a mainland company also permits businesses to establish multiple branches, thereby strengthening their presence throughout the Emirates.
Mainland enterprises also have the flexibility to undertake a broad range of activities. If you wish to expand your offerings within the mainland, you can simply re-register the new business activity with the DED, enabling you to trade freely without constraints.
An attractive aspect of setting up a mainland business in Dubai is the significant opportunities presented by government tenders in the UAE. In recent years, the Abu Dhabi Executive Council approved a substantial budget of AED 17.5 billion (USD 4.76 billion) for government projects, with over AED 4 billion allocated for infrastructure alone. Additionally, approximately AED 2 billion was earmarked for education, and a combined AED 1.2 billion for upgrades to governmental and social facilities. As an established mainland company in Dubai, you’ll be excellently positioned to capitalize on these lucrative government contracts.
