Four pillars of opening your UAE business.

Each engagement is scoped to your activity, passport, and capital structure — no templated packages, no hidden government fees.

01 / Formation

Company registration

Jurisdiction selection across 36 free zones and mainland DED. Full document prep, MoA, shareholder structuring, and license procurement.

02 / Residency

Residence visas

Investor, Golden, freelance, and family visas. VIP biometrics pathway available — Emirates ID in hand within 7 days.

03 / Banking

Bank accounts

Corporate and personal accounts with Emirates NBD, Mashreq, Wio, FAB, and RAK. We prepare a strong KYC file so the bank can make its decision quickly; final account opening still requires a visit or in-person identity verification under the bank's process.

04 / Support

Ongoing operations

License renewals, accounting, VAT, corporate tax filings, audit, PRO services, and attestation — one team, one invoice.

Open your UAE company with Sirius if you need

  • A new UAE company for consulting, services, trade, e-commerce, or technology
  • A credible license and bank account for international invoicing
  • Investor or employee visas connected to the business
  • A holding, SPV, family office, or asset-management structure
  • A mainland or free-zone company for selling inside the UAE
  • Accounting, VAT, corporate tax, renewals, and PRO support after launch

Probably not the right fit if

  • You just want the cheapest possible license and nothing after it — we're built for founders who also need banking, visas, and compliance to actually work.
  • You need a guaranteed bank account with no in-person visit — no honest firm can promise that, and we won't.
  • Your source of funds can't be documented — we prepare files banks approve, we don't paper over gaps.
  • You don't plan to actually operate the company — a license with no real activity is exactly what banks and regulators screen out.

Six steps from consultation to operations.

No templated packages. Each stage has a named owner on our side and a clear written checkpoint before we proceed to the next.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We map your activity, passport, visa count, banking need, and timeline. We tell you which 2–3 jurisdictions realistically fit.

  2. 02

    Jurisdiction & structure

    Written recommendation with three-year total cost, activity codes, shareholder structure, and expected banking reality per option.

  3. 03

    License

    Document prep, MoA drafting, filing with the authority. You sign once. We chase every approval so you don't.

  4. 04

    Visa & Emirates ID

    Entry permit, medical, biometrics, residence stamping. VIP pathway available — Emirates ID in hand in roughly a week.

  5. 05

    Banking

    We prepare your KYC file during the license phase so the bank application moves the moment the license drops. After identity verification, digital banks usually take 3–10 days; traditional banks take 4–8 weeks.

  6. 06

    Operations

    License renewals, accounting, VAT, corporate tax filings, PRO services, attestations. One team, one invoice, for as long as you want it.

Get a number before the consultation.

Answer six questions about your activity and structure. We return a realistic AED range, then use those answers as the brief for your consultation so the conversation starts with decisions, not discovery.

Question 1 of 6
What is your primary business activity?
01 / 06

The five mistakes we watch for.

Every week we see founders pick the wrong structure, pay twice to fix it, or quietly lose months in banking. Here's what we screen for before you commit.

01

Wrong activity code

Your license activity does not actually cover what you plan to invoice for. You get fined or forced to re-license.

02

Visa quota too small

Your chosen free zone and office type limits how many visas you can issue. Scaling the team means relocating the license.

03

Bank rejection

KYC gaps around source of funds, beneficial ownership, or business model kill an application that a prepared file would have passed.

04

Hidden renewal costs

Year-one license looks cheap; year-two and year-three renewals, Ejari, and visa rollovers make another jurisdiction a better three-year bet.

05

Compliance gaps

Corporate tax filings, VAT, ESR, and Ultimate Beneficial Owner registrations missed in the first twelve months. Fixing later is more expensive than doing it right.
