Your gateway to doing business in Dubai

What Is A Trade License In Dubai?

A Trade License in Dubai is an official permit issued by the Dubai Department of Economic Development (DED) or Free Zone authorities, allowing individuals and companies to legally operate. It confirms your business is registered, government-recognized, and compliant with UAE laws. The license defines your approved business activities—whether trading, services, manufacturing, or tourism—and is required for contracts, bank accounts, hiring, and expansion. Beyond legal compliance, it also builds credibility and trust for your business in the market.
