Indicative first-year licence
Residence visa allocation
Location in Dubai
DWTC has positioned itself as a home for virtual asset businesses, but a free zone licence alone is not enough: virtual asset activities in Dubai require authorisation from the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority. That is a substantive regulatory application with capital, compliance and governance requirements. Budget months, not days.
No. The events connection is historic and still an advantage, but DWTC licenses a broad range of professional, consultancy and technology activities. The common thread among its tenants is wanting a central, credible Dubai address.
For standard, non-regulated activities with complete documents, expect the licence within three to ten working days. Residence visas add a further two to four weeks after issuance, and corporate bank account opening runs three to eight weeks in parallel. Regulated activities requiring external approval take longer, and we tell you how much longer before you commit.
Yes. We handle the activity selection, name reservation, application, licence issuance, establishment and immigration cards, residence visas, corporate bank introduction, and the corporate tax and VAT registrations that follow. You get one point of contact and one itemised quote covering all of it.
