When starting a business in Dubai, one of the most important documents you need is the Trade License. A trade license designates the business activities that your company can conduct across the UAE.
According to the law, the Department of Economic Development (DED) is responsible for all regulations for all businesses set outside the free zone. Moreover, since non-GCC nationals are not permitted to own the majority of the shares, the UAE has issued a system of shared ownership, which allows GCC nationals to own 51% of the company unless you set your business in the free zone.
