05 FAQ

CommerCity setup — common questions.

How much does it cost to set up a company in Dubai CommerCity (CommerCity)?
Indicative setup in CommerCity starts from around AED 30,000. Your final cost depends on the number of residence visas (roughly AED 3,500–5,500 each), whether you need a physical office, and your specific business activity. Free zones also run regular promotions, which we pass on — so your quote is often lower than the starting figure.
How long does CommerCity company formation take?
Licensing in CommerCity typically takes 1–3 weeks. Adding residence visas and opening a corporate bank account can take a little longer.
Can I set up in CommerCity from India without travelling?
Yes — the CommerCity licence can usually be arranged remotely. If you take a UAE residence visa, a short visit is normally needed for medical testing and Emirates ID biometrics.
Is CommerCity a VAT designated zone?
Yes. CommerCity is a designated zone, which can offer VAT advantages on the movement of goods. We’ll confirm exactly how this applies to your activity.
Can I open a UAE bank account with a CommerCity licence?
Yes. A CommerCity licence makes you eligible to apply for a UAE corporate bank account. Approval depends on your activity, documents and profile — we point you to the banks that tend to open most smoothly for CommerCity companies.
