About Velarozone

The firm that structures the company before anyone files it.

Velarozone is an adviser-led firm for businesses in the UAE: company setup, visas, banking, accounting, legal, escrow, card payments, marketing and regulatory consulting, under one adviser and one file. We compare the viable routes, price the whole first year and the renewal, and put the reasoning in writing — then file only what you've approved.

How we work

The difference, in four commitments

01

Structure before paperwork.

The route comparison comes first; applications follow the decision, never the other way round.

02

The complete cost, including year two.

Setup figures and renewal figures side by side, components itemised.

03

Reasoning you can hold us to.

Every recommendation is written down — trade-offs, dependencies and open questions included.

04

Approvals stay where they belong.

Authorities decide licences and visas; banks decide accounts. We prepare, coordinate and report by stage — and say so plainly.

Advisers

The people who review your file

Structuring, tax, banking readiness and immigration are different disciplines. Your file is owned by one adviser and reviewed by the specialist function at each stage.

Structuring

Jurisdiction and entity decisions for cross-border groups, branches, subsidiaries, and holding structures — driven by your activity, markets, and ownership.

Tax and compliance

Corporate tax registration, free-zone qualifying-income analysis, VAT threshold reviews, and coordination with your home-country adviser.

Banking readiness

Bank files, source-of-funds narratives, and transaction profiles, with KYC follow-up managed through the relationship team.

Immigration and PRO

Establishment cards, entry permits, Emirates ID, dependant sponsorship, and registry amendments across free-zone and mainland authorities.

Illustrative scenario, fictional client

Consultancy exporting services from day one

Situation
A management consultant with clients in Europe and Asia, no UAE customers, and one residency visa needed.
Route
A free-zone company with a desk package — the activity mapped before any zone was chosen.
Result
Licensed with the visa allocation the workspace supports, and the renewal figure shown next to the setup figure before any commitment.

Illustrative scenario, fictional client

Trading business that needed onshore invoicing

Situation
A distributor whose revenue depended on invoicing UAE mainland customers directly.
Route
A mainland licence with a registered tenancy, compared in writing against the free-zone alternative.
Result
Onshore contracting within the licensed activity, the visa quota following the premises, and the trade-offs documented for the bank.

Please note

This page is general information about UAE business setup, not legal, tax, immigration, or banking advice. Rules, fees, permitted activities, and bank policies can change. Final eligibility depends on your facts and the applicable rules at the time of application.

Process

From first conversation to operating company

  1. 01

    Tell us how the business will operate.

    Activity, customers, ownership, visas, workspace — about two minutes in the planner, or say it in a call.

  2. 02

    Compare the viable routes.

    You receive the setup plan: costs, trade-offs, timing and adviser notes on each route, in writing.

  3. 03

    Approve and launch.

    Once you approve a route, Velarozone coordinates the licence, residency, banking readiness and compliance setup.

Questions

About the firm

Are you a law firm or a tax adviser?
No. We are an advisory and corporate services firm. Company setup, visas, banking, accounting, legal, escrow, card payments, marketing and regulatory consulting are offered under one engagement, with a network of licensed partners behind the work the law reserves for them: legal advice comes from a licensed law firm, an audit opinion from a registered auditor, escrow from a regulated agent.
Do you only work with one free zone?
No. We are not tied to a single free zone or registry. The right jurisdiction depends on your activity list, customer location, visa requirement, and substance needs, so we compare options for your facts.
Can you guarantee a licence, a visa, or a bank account?
No. Approvals rest with the relevant authority or bank. We prepare and coordinate applications, and we tell you where your file is weak before it is submitted.

Start with the plan, not the paperwork.

Two minutes of questions. A preliminary comparison you keep. An adviser-reviewed plan before anything is filed.
