Local Sponsorship & PRO Services

In accordance with UAE regulations, companies operating on the UAE mainland are required to
appoint a UAE national as a Local Sponsor. This sponsor typically holds a 51% ownership stake
in the company, including its branches or representative offices.
However, this arrangement is largely nominal; the local sponsor is not involved in the day-to-day
operations, management, or financial affairs of the business. Their role is primarily to satisfy the
legal requirement for local participation in mainland businesses, thereby enabling the company
to operate legally within the UAE.


Every company operating in the UAE mainland is also required to engage a Public Relations
Officer services. They assist with Visa applications and renewals, Company trade licensing
documentation and approvals, Labor and immigration card processing etc. PRO act as liaisons
between businesses and government departments, ensuring that all processes are completed
accurately and in a timely manner. While the process can be time-consuming and complex, these
services are critical to ensure legal compliance and smooth business operations.

them obtain their commercial licenses, as required by UAE law. With extensive experience in
both local sponsorship and PRO services, we ensure a smooth, efficient, and hassle-free process
