Dubai Department Approvals

Dubai Visa Services for Efficient Processing and Approval

Every business in Dubai, whether established on the mainland or in a free zone, often requires approvals from various government authorities before beginning operations. QBS supports clients throughout this process by securing all essential Authority Approvals in Dubai, ensuring a smooth, compliant, and timely business setup.

For a new business in Mainland Dubai, the first requirement is registering a trade name with the Dubai Economic Department (DED). This step involves multiple applications, documentation reviews, and may require approvals from specific departments depending on your business activity.

QBS Business Services assists applicants with their initial approval submissions and helps them obtain their trade license quickly. Our team continues to manage all required authority approvals from the relevant ministries and departments based on the company’s activity and structure. Since each business type may have different compliance requirements, the documents needed for registration can vary.

Some activities require additional approvals from federal or local government bodies. For example, establishing a hospital requires not only a DED license but also approval from the Dubai Health Authority (DHA). Meanwhile, other activities under DED regulation may not need additional approvals.
