The activities cover a wide range of professions, including Consultancy, Research and Development, Testing and Inspection Services, Installation and Maintenance, Marketing activities, IT services, Training and Education, Medical Profession activities and Treatment, Brokerage Services, Gyms and Fitness Centres amongst others.
The new regime allows these activities to be 100% foreign-owned, using a Sole Establishment or Foreign Branch Structure - so either owned 100% by an individual person or foreign company. The Establishment will still require a National Service Agent (NSA) or local sponsor for the licence who will be responsible for managing licensing requirements.
Abu Dhabi has introduced several initiatives recently to improve the ease of doing business and its global competitiveness as it prepares for its next 50 years of economic growth - with the new 100% ownership rules, Freelancer Licence, Trader Licence and the 90% reduction in company formation and license renewal fees.
