UAE Freelance Assistance Setup
at AED 4,999.

Any individual — resident or non-resident — can apply for a UAE freelance business. UAE residents (including those on a spouse/dependent residency, employment residency, or golden residency) can apply for a business only. Non-residents or those starting fresh can apply for the full residency package.

Typically required: a valid passport copy, a recent passport-sized photograph, a completed application form, and the first instalment payment. Additional documents (such as an NOC from your employer) may be required depending on your residency status. Our consultants will guide you on the exact requirements.

Yes. If you hold an active UAE employment residency, you can still apply for a freelance business. You will need to provide a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from your current employer or sponsor. Our team will advise you on the exact requirements during your consultation.

Most freelance permits are processed within 2–5 working days once all documents are submitted. The timeline may vary slightly depending on the free zone authority and application volume at the time of submission.

However, if you are applying for a residency residency, you will need to enter the UAE within 60 days of the residency issuance to complete biometric registration and have the residency stamped in your passport.

If your UAE residency is currently being cancelled, you can still apply for a freelance residency package. You will need to provide your residency cancellation documentation. Our consultants will guide you on the best approach to ensure a smooth transition.
