Pricing
A government fee belongs to the government
The most repeated complaint in this trade is the price that grows in the middle of the process. Here the official fee appears on its own line, at the exact amount, with the receipt in your name and no margin buried inside. Our fee appears separately.
How to read the invoice
Two sections, never one package
A fee paid in your name is a pass-through: it enters at the exact amount, with the official receipt attached, and stays outside the scope of value added tax. VAT at 5% applies to our fee. Burying a margin inside an official fee would turn the pass-through into a taxable service — which is why we do not do it, and why you are able to compare.
| Item | Treatment |
|---|---|
| DET, immigration, labour, Ejari and attestation fees | at cost · outside VAT |
| Certified translator and notary | at cost · receipt in your name |
| Preparation, checking and filing | fee + 5% VAT |
| Follow-up until issuance | fee + 5% VAT |
| Total | an open sum, not rounded |
Plans
What each plan includes
The fees below are ours. Government fees are added on top, at cost, in all of them.
-
Diagnosis
No cost. A conversation with the assistant, an interview with an adviser and a written memo: what fits, what does not, what to legalise before you board and the estimated cost.
-
Door
Incorporation, establishment cards, shareholder visa and Emirates ID. A fixed fee, closed in the quote and not revised halfway through.
-
Maintenance
A monthly subscription per company. Calendar of deadlines, alerts and renewal filings. One corporate tax penalty avoided pays for years of subscription.
-
Legalisation
Per document. Coordination of the full consular chain and of the certified translation, with a format check before every step.
We charge no success fee on anything that depends on an authority's decision. Charging for the outcome of a public body creates an incentive to promise what nobody controls — and we do not control it, nor does anyone else.
What never enters the bill
What we sell, and what nobody can sell
- Account opening: we do provide the service. We prepare the file, organise the source-of-funds evidence and take the process forward, with a specialised partner. It is a service charged and delivered.
- What we do not sell is the approval. The decision belongs to the bank, and industry estimates point to 6 in every 10 small-business applications being delayed or refused. We sell the file that makes the bank say yes — never the yes.
- An authority's timeline. We publish the official deadline and the real progress. We do not guarantee an authority's date.
- Payment. We invoice in AED, with the amount calculated in dollars where appropriate. Bank transfer or Wise. If your wealth is in digital assets, you convert at a licensed desk and pay normally — we do not receive virtual assets, because the Central Bank's payment token regime does not allow a service to be paid for that way.
