@thecontainerthecontents68893 жыл бұрын
thank you Michael -- you are exactly correct -- many of these businesses will pressure you to sign up in one of the most expensive zones -- and claim you won't be able to get banking without forming in that pricey zone -- and meanwhile they say substance isn't a big deal or required, nor a residential lease. So you'll be paying a good 10 thousand with those kind companies just to form... and you could've just opened a RAK freezone company or something less expensive like that and used the money towards creating real substance there -- which actually makes the real difference I think. So they are taking advantage IMO, and misrepresenting what actually matters to the banks, because they know they cannot profit off you forming substance, but they do profit off you choosing an expensive dubai zone. Sneaky stuff. Would you say the most important factor is having an office? Or having a residential lease to show the bank? Because renting a home in dubai is not cheap. And there's laws there apparently not allowing people to sublet -- therefore if you rent, and then want to leave dubai most of the year -- you cannot even make use of that rental by renting it out to someone else -- or so i heard.

My experience is the most valuable thing you can do is get a residential address. It's not always necessary (to be fair you could get accounts without it or bank outside of UAE but if I was going to choose 1 thing I'd get a residential address). If you won't be there much usually go for a far out small apartment.

It is also worth mentioning that not all free zones allow every business activity. Often, finding the best matching business activity from their list can require some creativity and research. Some free zones are also specialised. As a foreign exchange speculator (with my own money and no clients), I could only think of two free zones that directly offer exactly that business activity. Thinking a little further, I could of course consider the activity of a single-family office or, of course, a holding company if all I want is a visa to live/get residency in the UAE.

Great video. We took the plunge and moved our business to Dubai this year, and let me tell you, it's been a serious headache. Dealing with the whole process of starting or shifting a business here is way more complicated and annoying compared to what we're used to in the Western countries. You can't just buy an LLC like you can back home; it involves a bunch of confusing paperwork and details. But, even though it's been really frustrating, it's starting to pay off because we don't have to pay any taxes anymore, and Dubai is just an incredible place. Luckily, we stumbled upon a company that helps with setting up businesses; otherwise, I think we'd be stuck trying to figure everything out on our own for ages.

Due to shortage of talent & cost, we want to recruit in South East Asia, working remotely for clients (Covid made this acceptable). But the hassle of setting up a legal entity in multiple countries is too high and I am wondering if a Dubai FZ company be a good option, where we can issue legal contract for Remote hiring e.g. in Sri Lanka or India? Our expected number for 2023 is hiring around 10-15 people through the Dubai FZ company (assuming it is possible). I should also add, in the near-term, we will not be providing services in UAE.

I mean, if a countries fiat currency collapses, would another currency like say Swiss Francs be available to you? That kind of lack of freedom or access to freedom. I would suspect that if a person could go where the powerful people find refuge, then one would be better off for having freedoms. So, relating to my original question.

Yeah I'd say other people are definitely an indicator, though it's never a one dimensional factor so it's important to watch for that. For instance a lot of UHNWIs are moving to Australia so should you go there? What does it tell you? These are often people moving from places like China so you've got to compare that. Also, note that these people don't necessarily know and might be responding to brand, which is why I think the share of people who go and stay is an interesting data point. Good contrast here is between Panama and Cyprus. I see tons of people who move to Panama but almost none who stay. By contrast, most of those I know who move to Cyprus seem to stay... Interesting data point.
