In the UAE, your trade license lets you operate, but it does not stop others from using your logo, name, or slogan. Only a Trademark gives you exclusive legal ownership nationwide.
As of 2026, the UAE continues to modernize its intellectual property landscape. At FounderX, we ensure your application is compliant with the latest Ministry of Economy (MoE) standards and classifications, protecting you from the ground up.
