Everything You Need to Know About
Product Registration & Business Setup in UAE

Quick answers from the Nextmove Services team — covering MOHAP approvals, Dubai Municipality registration, free zone company formation, and more.

  • Most MOHAP registrations are completed within 2–6 weeks, depending on the product category, type, and completeness of documentation submitted. Medical devices may take slightly longer due to additional technical and clinical review requirements. Nextmove Services manages the entire MOHAP submission process — from initial document verification and portal registration to final approval — to minimise delays and avoid costly rejections.
  • Yes. With a UAE free zone licence — such as SHAMS (Sharjah Media City), Meydan Free Zone, or SPC Free Zone — foreign investors retain 100% ownership with no local sponsor or Emirati partner required. Nextmove Services handles end-to-end free zone company formation including trade licence issuance, visa quota allocation, and bank account referral — all from one point of contact.
  • Cosmetics, food items, health supplements, biocides, detergents, and household products all require Dubai Municipality (DM/CPRE) registration and label compliance approval before they can be legally sold in the UAE market. Nextmove Services manages the full DM submission, product label review, CPRE portal registration, and follow-up communications on your behalf — ensuring your products reach shelves without regulatory delays.
  • A mainland licence (issued by the Department of Economy and Tourism) allows you to trade freely across the UAE, including with government entities and the local market — with recent reforms now permitting 100% foreign ownership in most activities. A free zone licence offers full foreign ownership, tax advantages, and a faster setup, but restricts direct trading within the UAE mainland without a local distributor. Nextmove Services advises on the best structure based on your business activity, target market, visa needs, and budget.
  • Nextmove Services is a full-spectrum UAE regulatory consultancy. We handle: MOHAP registration (medical devices, medicines, health products), Dubai Municipality product registration (cosmetics, food, supplements, biocides), ESMA and MOIAT certifications, SIRA approvals, UAE trademark registration, MOFA document attestation, and medical drugstore (pharmacy) setup. We act as your single point of contact for all UAE government and regulatory compliance — saving you time, cost, and complexity.
  • Business setup costs in Dubai vary by licence type, activity, and visa requirements. Free zone packages typically start from AED 5,750 per year for basic trade or service licences (SHAMS, Meydan, SPC). Mainland licences vary depending on the activity, office type, and DED requirements. Nextmove Services offers a free consultation to give you a precise cost breakdown tailored to your business type, jurisdiction preference, and long-term goals — with no hidden fees or surprises.
