UAE company formation · Sharjah SRTIP & Dubai IFZA
ETEFORM helps non-residents form a UAE company in Sharjah (SRTIP) or Dubai (IFZA) with 100% ownership and no local partner. Published formation packages include optional residence paths (0–3 visas). Start from inside or outside the UAE.
Packages from AED 14,900
Licence, residence and bank-account decisions are issued by the competent authorities after each file is reviewed.
You do not have to start with residence or a large standalone office. We help you set the activity, prepare the owners’ documents, and submit and follow the licence file. If you choose a formation package with residence visas, we explain when you need to attend for the medical test and Emirates ID.
The company is registered in the free zone without a local partner, whether it has one owner or several.
Details and documents can be sent, and the licence file opened, from outside the UAE. Steps that later require attendance are explained in advance.
The package includes up to five activities accepted by the zone. Any extra activity is priced before it is requested.
Choose zero, one, two or three visas, without changing the rest of the formation services included.
Why ETEFORM?
We start with the nature of your work, the number of owners and whether you need residence, then we match that to the activity and the right package. The aim is that you know what will happen, what we need from you, and what remains subject to the competent authority.
ETEFORM is a business-services firm, not the authority that issues the licence or the visa. We prepare the file, follow the process and explain the requirements. Official decisions come from SRTIP, government authorities and the banks.
You see the package price and its services before you open an application. Items that are not included, such as renewal and extra activities, are shown clearly.
We connect licence issue to optional residence, tax registration and the bank file, without treating one approval as another.
We explain terms and requirements in clear English so you decide on cost, scope and actual responsibilities.
These are SRTIP packages in Sharjah. You do not pay for a visa you will not use. Core formation services are the same in all four packages; you only choose how many residence paths you need now.
For anyone who wants a legal UAE entity and can run the business without residence for now.

A licence-only advertised price is not enough. ETEFORM Dubai packages put the licence, establishment card, chosen residence, medical, Emirates ID, basic insurance and the bank file in one figure.

Our work does not stop at filing the licence. A Sharjah package combines company documents, initial compliance services and bank-file preparation, and adds residence procedures when you choose a formation package with residence visas.
The SRTIP licence and registration, the address and workspace within the published scope, and the memorandum and owner resolutions.
Up to five activities accepted by the zone. Regulated activities may need extra approvals.
Help preparing and filing corporate-tax registration. Registration is not a promise of a specific tax rate.
A review of whether the requirement applies, and registration help when the activity is in scope. Ongoing compliance remains the company’s responsibility.
Preparation of the core documents, organisation of the submission file and support responding to the bank. Opening the account, and when, is the bank’s decision alone.
An 800 number for one year and a UAE mobile number for WhatsApp. Formation packages with residence visas include the establishment card, medical and Emirates ID path after approval.
Activity, owners and visas.
Company, manager and owner details.
Confirm the file is clear and complete.
Follow the application with SRTIP.
Residence, tax and the bank file.
A complete licence file is usually processed in about 7 to 10 working days. The timeline can change if extra documents or approvals are requested. Read the steps in full.
Yes. The licence file can be opened and documents sent from abroad. If you choose a formation package with residence visas, you will later need to attend for the medical test and Emirates ID.
No. The formation package with 0 residence visas lets you form the company without a residence path in the package. You can add a residence path later under the process and price then in force.
No. The package includes preparation and support for the submission file. The bank reviews the activity, ownership, source of funds and countries of dealing, then decides independently.
We flag that before the activity is locked in, wherever we can. Approval remains with the regulator, which may ask for documents or fees outside the published package.
No. The prices shown are for first-year formation. Standard licence renewal is published at AED 8,250 a year on the renewal page.
No. The licence and residence are separate decisions. Residence procedures start after the licence when the formation package includes residence visas, and they remain subject to the competent authorities.
If the activity or visa count still needs a check, request a free file review first. Choose a package only when you are ready to open the application.
