Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the setup process actually take?
Most incorporations are completed in 4–8 weeks, depending on entity type, government approvals, and document processing. Free Zone setups tend to be faster (3–5 weeks), while Mainland can take 6–8 weeks. We provide a realistic timeline during your discovery call.
Do I need to be physically present in the UAE during setup?
Not for most of the process. Many steps can be handled remotely, but you'll typically need to visit once for Emirates ID registration, bank account opening, and final approvals. We'll clarify the exact requirements based on your chosen structure.
What's the real difference between Mainland and Free Zone?
Free Zones offer 100% foreign ownership, tax benefits, and faster setup — but restrict where you can operate (mostly within the Free Zone and internationally). Mainland allows you to do business anywhere in the UAE and globally, but may require a local service agent. We'll help you choose based on your business model and growth plans.
Can I get a residency visa for myself and my family?
Yes. As a business owner, you can sponsor residency visas for yourself, your spouse, children, and employees. Visa validity ranges from 2–10 years depending on your investment and setup type. We guide you through the entire visa process.
What are the total costs beyond your consulting fee?
Government fees, licensing, office requirements, and visa processing vary significantly by entity type, location, and business activities. Costs typically range from $5,000–$20,000+ depending on your setup. During your discovery call, we'll provide a transparent, itemized cost breakdown tailored to your specific case.
Do you provide support after the company is registered?
Absolutely. Our Premium package includes 90 days of post-launch advisory support. We also offer ongoing consulting for market expansion, team hiring, compliance management, and strategic growth initiatives along with operational assistance if required. Many clients continue working with us long after incorporation.
What makes Scaleo different from other setup agencies?
We're not a transactional service provider. You work directly with Patricia — an experienced business consultant who provides strategic advice, not just paperwork processing. We focus on your long-term success in the UAE market, not just getting you incorporated and moving to the next client.
