Questions
About these numbers
How accurate is this calculator?
The figures track the budget end of the Dubai market as of mid 2026: zero-visa free zone licences from AED 12,500, visas at roughly AED 5,500 per person all-in, and shared Ejari offices from AED 8,000 for mainland. Your written quote will be exact; this tool exists so nothing on it surprises you.
Why does adding visas change the licence line?
Free zone packages price by visa allocation. A licence permitted to sponsor visas costs more than a zero-visa licence at the same zone, so the calculator moves the base when you move the slider.
What is not included in the estimate?
Activity-specific approvals, document attestation for corporate shareholders, and bank minimum balances sit outside the standard lines. All appear itemised in a written quote before you pay anything.
