🕒 You’ve Heard “1 Day”, “3 Weeks”, “2 Months” — So What’s the Truth?

Everyone’s got a different story when it comes to setting up in the UAE. But if everything is in order, here’s the reality:

• ✅ Some Free Zones can issue a license within an hour
• ✅ Mainland companies usually take around 3 working days
• ✅ Most Free Zones take 2 to 5 working days

Sounds fast, right? But here’s where most timelines fall apart…

🛂 The Delays Start When Visas Enter the Picture

If you’re applying for an investor or employee visa, expect it to stretch to 2–3 weeks, depending on how smooth the approvals go.
And that doesn’t include medical tests and Emirates ID once you arrive.

🌍 But You Don’t Even Need to Be in the UAE to Start

I’ve helped clients set up everything remotely—even entry permits and visa applications—before they even landed in Dubai.
You arrive ready to finish medicals and collect your Emirates ID. That’s it.

⚠️ The Biggest Mistake? Rushing In With the Wrong Setup

A lot of people start with a Free Zone, only to realize they need Mainland. Fixing that mistake wastes time and money.
