Why Choose Thinqivity for Nominee Shareholder Services in Dubai

Dubai’s position as a global business hub, combined with its strategic location, world-class infrastructure, and favorable tax policies, makes it an attractive place for entrepreneurs and investors. One of the critical aspects of setting up a business in Dubai is understanding the importance of nominee shareholder services, which Thinqivity can help facilitate. Here’s why choosing Thinqivity for your nominee shareholder needs is the best decision for your business in Dubai.

Why Nominee Shareholders Are Essential for Business Setup in Dubai

Strategic Location for International Investors

Dubai’s geographic location serves as a gateway between Europe, Asia, and Africa. The city’s proximity to emerging markets with over 3 billion consumers enhances its status as a critical hub for business and investment activities. Setting up a business in Dubai with Thinqivity ensures you have reliable nominee shareholder services that cater to both regional and global investors.

Nominee Shareholder Services for Full Foreign Ownership

Foreign nationals can now fully own their businesses within Dubai’s Free Zones, but in some cases, a UAE national nominee shareholder is required for Mainland businesses. Thinqivity offers expert nominee shareholder services to facilitate compliance with local regulations, while maintaining your full control over your business operations.

Business-Friendly Regulatory Environment

Dubai offers a zero-tax regime on many types of business, attracting entrepreneurs from around the world. By utilizing Thinqivity’s nominee shareholder services, you can ensure your business structure is compliant with the UAE’s corporate governance laws while maximizing your financial benefits.

The Types of Business Entities in Dubai That May Require Nominee Shareholders

1. Mainland Company
   Mainland companies in Dubai often require a local nominee shareholder, where the UAE national owns at least 51% of the shares. With Thinqivity as your nominee shareholder, you can ensure that your business remains compliant while you retain effective control over the business.

2. Free Zone Company
   Free Zones allow 100% foreign ownership without the need for a local sponsor. However, for certain administrative and operational needs, nominee shareholders may still play a crucial role. Thinqivity provides tailored solutions for Free Zone companies as well.

3. Offshore Company
   Offshore companies in Dubai generally do not require nominee shareholders, but Thinqivity can provide them if your business needs to establish a certain structure for confidentiality or regulatory purposes.

Steps to Set Up Your Business with Nominee Shareholders in Dubai

Setting up your business with Thinqivity as your nominee shareholder can be a seamless process with the following steps:

1. Determine the Type of Business Entity
   Choose between a Mainland, Free Zone, or Offshore company based on your business needs. Thinqivity can help guide you through the decision-making process.

2. Choose the Right Business Structure
   If you’re setting up a Mainland company, you will need a local nominee shareholder. Thinqivity provides trustworthy nominees to meet these requirements.

3. Register Your Business Name
   Choose a unique and compliant business name, ensuring it aligns with UAE naming conventions.

4. Obtain Initial Approvals
   Depending on your business activity, we help obtain the necessary initial approvals from the relevant authorities.

5. Prepare Documents and Draft the MOA
   If you’re setting up a Mainland business, the Memorandum of Association (MOA) will need to be drafted. Thinqivity handles this for you.

6. Get Your Business License
   After completing all documentation, Thinqivity ensures you get the right business license based on your entity type and activity.

7. Nominee Shareholder Agreement
   We offer a comprehensive nominee shareholder agreement, ensuring your interests are protected while remaining compliant.
