Licence Renewal

Annual renewal of a UAE trade licence. Required for the company to continue operating legally.

In practice

Costs vary by free zone — typically the same as the original year-one government fee minus the one-off registration fee. Renewal must be completed before the licence expires; late renewal incurs fines and ultimately licence cancellation. ArxSetup handles renewals from USD 1,500 (service fee) plus pass-through government charges.
