Mainland Company Setup — Full Market Access in Dubai
Establish your mainland company with 100% foreign ownership, unlimited visa quotas, and the freedom to trade anywhere in the UAE and beyond.
About This Service
A Dubai mainland company, licensed by the Department of Economic Development (DED), offers the broadest market access of any UAE business structure. Mainland companies can trade directly with the UAE government, operate across all Emirates without restrictions, and engage in a full range of commercial and professional activities.
Following landmark changes to UAE commercial law, foreign investors can now own 100% of mainland companies in most business activities — eliminating the previous requirement for a UAE national majority shareholder. DAWN Government Transactions Center guides you through every aspect of mainland setup, from legal structure selection and DED registration to office leasing, visa processing, and post-setup compliance.
