Challenges of Offshore Company Formation in Dubai, UAE: • Complexity of the Process: The process of establishing an offshore company in Dubai is complex and involves multiple steps, including obtaining the necessary licenses and permits, appointing a registered agent, and maintaining ongoing compliance with local regulations. • Cost Considerations: While Dubai offers competitive offshore company formation fees compared to other jurisdictions, there are still various costs involved, including government fees, legal fees, and agent fees. • Language Barriers: Arabic is the official language of the UAE, and while English is widely spoken in Dubai, individuals may encounter language barriers during the company formation process. • Limited Business Activities: Offshore companies in Dubai are restricted from conducting certain business activities, such as retail, manufacturing, and construction.
