Set Up Your Business in Dubai, Sponsor Your Own Visa
Most German founders and consultants do not wait for a job offer. They form a UAE company and use it to sponsor their own investor residency instead.
Quickplus Business Consultant in Dubai matches your activity and structure to how you actually invoice, not just what is fastest to set up
Free Zone or Mainland:
What Suits Your Business?
Both routes give you full ownership, the right call depends on your market and how you plan to invoice.
- 100% foreign ownership, no local sponsor needed
- Faster setup, usually within days
- Good fit for consultants, online and export-focused businesses
- Mainland sales need a distributor or additional licensing
Residency options available with eligible company setups
- Trade freely across the UAE, tenders included
- No location restrictions on where you operate
- Works best if you need a local office or storefront
- Corporate tax kicks in above the profit threshold
Residency options available with eligible company setups
Quickplus Business Consultant bases the recommendation on your actual business activity, not just setup speed or cost.
Trusted by the Names That Matter
Quickplus partners with established banks, free zones and industry bodies to keep your setup credible and compliant.
Will You Still Pay German Tax?
It depends on your tax residency status, not your address. Quickplus Business Consultant structures your Germany-to-Dubai company setup around that distinction from day one.
Germany generally taxes you as a resident if you keep a home available for your use there, or spend more than 6 months (183 days) in the country in a calendar year
Fully deregistering your German residence (Abmeldung) and giving up your German home is usually central to establishing non-resident status
The Germany-UAE double tax treaty helps prevent double taxation on income already taxed in the UAE
Once you are genuinely non-resident, foreign-sourced income typically sits outside German tax. German-sourced income (German property, certain German pensions) generally does not.
