Made Our Dream Come True
We had dreamed of moving to Dubai for a long time. However, our hands were tied by the family business, and dealing with all the complexities of relocation on our own was challenging. Thankfully, the team of professionals helped us make our long-held dream a reality. Thank you!
Our relocation to Dubai was seamless and smooth, all thanks to this professional team! Everything was organized promptly and with great attention to detail.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
To liquidate or close a company in the UAE, you will need:
The company’s founding documents,
Copies of passports and visas of directors and shareholders,
Financial statements,
A liquidation notice for publication in the local press,
Clearance certificates for settling all debts and obligations with government bodies and third parties.
The company liquidation process in the UAE typically takes 2 to 6 months. However, the exact time frame may vary depending on several factors:
Type of company: Liquidating free zone companies can be faster than liquidating companies registered under mainland law.
Documentation: The speed of collecting and preparing the necessary documents may affect the overall timeline.
Checks: Unresolved debts or legal issues may slow the process.
Coordination with authorities: The process involves interacting with various government bodies, which can take time.
Before closing a company in the UAE, several obligations must be met:
Debt settlement: Ensure that all debts and financial obligations of the company, including taxes, rent, and loans, are paid.
Employee notification: Inform employees about the company’s closure and fulfill all obligations under employment contracts, including final settlements.
Document preparation: Prepare all necessary documents for liquidation, including financial statements and shareholder meeting minutes.
License cancellation: Contact the relevant authorities to cancel business licenses and registrations.
Bank account closure: Close all corporate bank accounts and obtain closure certificates.
Application submission: Submit the necessary liquidation applications to the relevant government authorities and comply with document legalization requirements.
After liquidation and closure, a company’s assets are distributed as follows:
Debt settlement: Initially, all assets are used to settle the company’s obligations, including debts to creditors, tax liabilities, and rent payments.
Distribution of remaining assets: Once all obligations are met, the remaining assets are distributed among the shareholders or company members according to their shares or established conditions.
Asset accounting: Proper asset accounting is crucial during liquidation to avoid potential disputes and issues with tax authorities.
Asset transfer: If the company’s assets need to be transferred to other individuals or organizations, this must be documented appropriately.
After completing all these processes, the liquidated company is considered closed, and its assets can no longer be used.
