Procedure for Setting Up a Business in SPC Free Zone

Establishing your business in the SPC Free Zone is a straightforward process, designed to be efficient and cost-effective. With Elevate Business Solutions by your side, you can navigate each step with ease. Here’s how to begin:

Start by selecting a distinctive name for your company that reflects your brand and is easy to remember. The name should include the legal entity type (such as LLC, FZE, or FZC) and must comply with local guidelines, avoiding references to government entities, religious terms, or anything that could be deemed inappropriate.

Next, determine the type of business activities your company will engage in. The SPC Free Zone offers over 1,500 business activities, allowing you to choose the one that best aligns with your business model. Once selected, apply for the relevant trade license, which grants you the legal authority to operate within the free zone.

Find the right office space that meets your business needs. SPC Free Zone provides a range of options, from shared and private offices to larger spaces like warehouses, catering to businesses of all sizes. Whether you plan to rent or buy, you can select a workspace that supports your operational requirements.

After choosing a trade name and obtaining your trade license, the next step is to officially register your business. Submit all necessary documentation along with your trade license application, and pay the registration fees. This step ensures your business is legally recognized in the SPC Free Zone.

Apply for an establishment card, which is required for processing visas. Then, proceed with visa applications for yourself, your employees, and any dependents. This process includes submitting visa forms, completing medical examinations, and obtaining UAE IDs and labour cards.

To handle your business finances, you'll need a corporate bank account. Choose a bank that offers services aligned with your business needs, and submit the necessary documents, such as your trade license and shareholders’ passport copies, to open the account.

With your setup complete, you’re ready to launch your business. Set up your office, start marketing your products or services, and begin operations under the regulations of the SPC Free Zone.
