Overview

Dubai e-commerce businesses need a licence matching their online sales model, products, customer geography, logistics and chosen mainland or free-zone jurisdiction.

Coutts Consultants coordinates dubai e-commerce licence coordination as a defined Dubai engagement.

We first establish the client's commercial objective and review products/services, website/platform, customers, logistics, payment model, jurisdiction, activity code and licence. Dubai has several distinct licensing and regulatory environments—including mainland licensing, specialist free zones, DIFC and the VARA virtual-asset regime—so the correct route is selected around the actual activity rather than a generic package.

We then coordinate the required authority, bank or professional work. Reserved legal, tax, audit, immigration or regulated financial-services work is undertaken by appropriately qualified UAE professionals, and every licence, visa, account or regulatory approval remains subject to the competent authority or institution.
