In recent years, Dubai and the UAE have implemented numerous measures to attract foreign investments, one of the most significant being the permission for 100% foreign ownership of companies. Previously, most business types required a local partner holding 51% of the company. Today, this restriction has been lifted for several sectors, allowing international entrepreneurs to register a business in Dubai with full foreign ownership.
This initiative is part of the UAE's comprehensive program to support international investors and entrepreneurs, covering key industries such as:
- Trade and Manufacturing: Industrial production and trade are among the primary sectors where foreign companies can now fully control their businesses, simplifying management and strategic planning.
- Technology and Information Services: Sectors related to IT, artificial intelligence, and innovation have become priorities for the UAE's economic development. Full ownership allows IT companies the freedom to manage their operations and attract capital more effectively.
- Healthcare and Medicine: Dubai is actively developing medical tourism and healthcare services, creating opportunities for foreign specialists and companies.
Full ownership of a business offers several strategic advantages, such as the ability to make quick managerial decisions without the need for local partner approval and simplified taxation. These changes have attracted companies from Europe, the US, Asia, and even Africa, eager to enter the Middle Eastern market and benefit from quick registration processes and globally competitive business conditions.
