About Worldwide Formations

Operating from offices in the Fairmont Dubai and the DNATA Travel Centre on Sheikh Zayed Road, this company formation specialist reports more than twenty years in the UAE and over ten thousand clients served, many of them through referrals. It is registered as a formation agent with the main free zones and also sets up mainland and offshore companies, from choosing the activity and structure through the trade licence, immigration and visa formalities, and corporate bank account assistance. Business, investor, partner and employee visas, medical tests and Emirates ID are handled in house. Once a company is running, the firm offers accounting and bookkeeping, auditing, VAT registration and returns, and trademark and brand development services. Packages come in lean and full-service versions, and a zero-visa free zone licence is advertised with a starting price. The firm answers questions from foreign entrepreneurs about ownership and presents its services in English.
