Expand to Dubai with both sides handled. AVS & Associates manages company registration in Dubai from India — structure selection, UAE tax and VAT, and banking — aligned with your Indian obligations.
Dubai and the wider UAE have become a leading hub for Indian entrepreneurs expanding globally, offering a strategic location, a competitive corporate tax regime, world-class banking and easy access to Middle Eastern and African markets. Company registration in Dubai from India is very achievable with the right guidance — but the choice between mainland, free zone and offshore structures has lasting tax, ownership and operational consequences.
AVS & Associates advises Indian founders end to end, coordinating the UAE setup with their Indian tax position and FEMA obligations.
Each jurisdiction within the UAE suits a different business model, and the right choice depends on where your customers and operations sit.
The UAE now levies a federal corporate tax at a standard rate of 9% above the prescribed profit threshold, alongside 5% VAT on most supplies, so the days of a purely zero-tax setup are over and proper planning matters. We help with corporate tax and VAT registration, opening a UAE bank account, and meeting ESR and UBO requirements. Crucially, we also align the structure with your Indian obligations under FEMA and the India-UAE tax treaty, so the two sides work together rather than against each other.
For Indian businesses going global, we make Dubai a well-planned launchpad — not a compliance headache.
For an Indian resident, setting up in the UAE is only half the picture. Your overseas shareholding may need reporting under FEMA’s Overseas Investment rules, the company’s income and your dividends can have Indian tax implications, and once you are ordinarily resident the holding must be disclosed in Schedule FA. A UAE structure that ignores the Indian side can create more problems than it solves.
We are one of the few advisors who handle both ends together — guiding the UAE incorporation, tax and banking while simultaneously keeping your Indian FEMA, tax and reporting obligations in order. This integrated approach is what separates a genuinely tax-efficient global structure from one that triggers Indian compliance issues down the line.
Few advisors manage the UAE setup and the Indian compliance side as one engagement. We coordinate your Dubai incorporation, corporate-tax and VAT registration and banking alongside your FEMA, Indian tax and reporting obligations, applying the India-UAE treaty so the two jurisdictions work together. That integration is what turns a Dubai expansion into a genuinely tax-efficient global structure rather than a future compliance problem.
Outbound expansion connects to your foreign subsidiary in India, foreign income tax in India, a domestic private limited company registration, and 15CA 15CB certificate for remittances.
