In Dubai, professionals can operate their businesses legally with a Mainland Professional License. This specialized license allows individuals or companies to offer services across various sectors such as consultancy, carpentry, beauty salons, printing, repair services and more. A professional license is ideal for skilled individuals or firms providing expertise-based services. If the business has multiple owners, it is registered as a civil company. At SB Consultancy, we offer complete support for obtaining both Mainland Commercial and Professional Licenses, ensuring a smooth and compliant setup for your service-based business in Dubai.

Dubai Mainland Professional License and Residency Visa Benefits.

A Dubai Mainland Professional License offers a wide range of benefits for individuals and companies looking to provide service-based or skilled expertise in the UAE. Whether you’re launching a consultancy, beauty salon, IT service or any other professional activity, this license gives you the legal foundation to operate confidently within the Dubai Mainland.

With a single professional license, you can offer multiple related services, making it easier to scale your business. Your company will be registered with the Department of Economic Development (DED), ensuring a secure and recognized legal standing for all operations.

One of the major advantages of holding a professional license is the eligibility to apply for a Dubai Mainland Residency Visa, both for yourself and your employees. This visa enables you to live, work and sponsor dependents in the UAE. Additionally, having a professional license simplifies access to corporate bank accounts, facilitates smoother financial transactions and exempts you from income tax, making financial reporting less burdensome.

Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur or forming a civil company with multiple partners, SB Consultancy provides complete support in obtaining your professional license and residency visa. From documentation to approvals, we handle everything making your setup journey simple, compliant and stress free.
