FAQ's
Do I need to be physically present in the UAE to register a company with FounderX?
Not necessarily. For many free zones and offshore jurisdictions, FounderX can handle the entire process remotely using scanned documents and Power of Attorney where needed. However, some banks or mainland setups may require a short in-person visit for verification.
Do you offer ongoing support after the business is registered?
Absolutely! Our support doesn’t end at incorporation. We help with everything from visas and license renewals to tax registration, office upgrades, and scaling your business over time. Think of us as your go-to business concierge.
Can I own 100% of my business as a foreigner in the UAE?
Yes, in most free zones and even mainland sectors. Over 1,000 commercial activities are now eligible for full foreign ownership-especially in areas like consulting, tech, trading, and education.
Can I register multiple business activities under one license?
Yes, It depends on wether you choose a mainland or freezone license, as many freezones allow a mix and match of multiple activities.
Can I pay in installments or does FounderX offer any financing options for startups?
Yes, we offer flexible installment plans for qualifying clients. We also help you explore financing support and partnerships with local banks or fintechs that cater to small business setup and startups.
Is an office space required for UAE company formation?
Not always. Most free zones offer flexi-desk or virtual office options that legally satisfy requirements. For mainland, a physical tenancy contract is often needed, but we offer support for affordable options.
How many visas can I get with a free zone license?
It varies by free zone and office type. A flexi-desk setup may allow 1–6 visas, while larger offices offer higher visa quotas. We’ll assess your needs and recommend the best option.
Do I need a UAE residency visa to start a company?
Not required, but highly recommended. Holding a UAE visa makes banking, tax registration, and compliance smoother. We help you obtain one under your company post-registration.
