Common questions

About bank account opening.

Not covered here? — we reply within one business day.

Can you guarantee an account?

No — the decision is the bank’s. We improve your chances by choosing suitable banks and preparing a complete file.

Are the government fees exact?

They are typical current figures. Your written quotation confirms the exact amount for your activities and the free zone’s latest schedule.

Why does year two cost less?

Residence visas last two years, and formation work is one-off. Year two is mainly the licence renewal.

Which free zone should I choose?

It depends on your activities, visa needs, budget and whether you need a Dubai address. We compare two or three for you in writing.
