with Our Expert Guidance

SCBH, your partner for your freelance journey in the UAE, makes the process hassle-free, straightforward, and budget-friendly packages and ensures that you choose the right legal structure and jurisdiction for your freelance objectives to thrive in the long run. 

Here are the 5 steps to acquire a Freelancer Visa in the UAE.

1

Select The Right Jurisdiction

Choose your activity and jurisdiction to set up as a freelancer in Dubai. Determine the freelance activities you wish to pursue, such as media, technology, or education. It’s also important to decide whether to operate in a free zone or on the mainland, as each has its regulations and benefits. Free zones often provide more streamlined processes and benefits like tax exemptions, while mainland operations offer broader market access.

Apply for a Freelance Permit

Next, apply for a freelance permit by submitting your application to the relevant authority, such as the Dubai Development Authority or a specific free zone. You must provide the necessary documents, including a copy of your passport, resume, credentials, and a detailed description of your freelance activity. The permit application process ensures that your freelance work is recognized and legally sanctioned within the UAE.

Obtain a Freelance Visa

Once your freelance permit is approved, apply for a freelance visa. This visa allows you to reside and work in the UAE legally. The process includes undergoing medical tests, providing biometric data, and obtaining your Emirates ID. This step is crucial as it grants you the legal status to live and operate your freelance business within the country.

Set Up a Bank Account

After securing your freelance visa, you must set up a local bank account to manage your finances effectively. This step is essential for receiving payments and handling business expenses. To open a bank account, you must provide documentation such as your freelance permit, visa, and Emirates ID. A local bank account will facilitate smoother financial transactions and help you maintain proper financial management.

5

Manage Legal and Regulatory Compliance

Finally, ensure you comply with UAE laws by renewing your freelance permit and visa annually. Keep accurate records of your finances and consider seeking professional accounting and bookkeeping services if needed to maintain proper financial management. Staying compliant with legal and regulatory requirements is crucial for your freelance business’s continued success and legitimacy in Dubai. Following these steps will help you successfully establish and operate as a freelancer in Dubai, tapping into a vibrant market with numerous opportunities.
