Business Setup Pricing Plans | Horizon Line UAE

Free zone licence costs in UAE start from approximately AED 5,750 for a flexi-desk package in certain free zones. Costs vary by free zone authority, number of activities, and office type (flexi-desk, shared, or dedicated office). Horizon Line compares options across 40+ free zones to find the most cost-effective fit for your business.

Mainland trade licence costs in UAE typically start from AED 12,000–15,000 for a sole establishment or LLC, excluding office rent and visa fees. Dubai mainland tends to cost more than Ajman, RAK, or Fujairah mainland. Horizon Line provides accurate cost estimates for each emirate based on your specific activity.

With Horizon Line, there are no hidden fees. We provide a fully itemised quote covering all government fees, authority charges, and professional service fees before you proceed. Common unexpected costs elsewhere include document attestation, PRO charges, and medical test fees — we include these transparently in your quote from day one.

VAT registration is not automatically included in standard business setup packages, as not all new businesses immediately meet the AED 375,000 annual turnover threshold. However, Horizon Line offers VAT registration as a standalone service or as part of a compliance add-on, and will advise whether you need to register immediately or voluntarily.

Yes. Horizon Line offers combined business setup and visa packages for investors, employees, and family members. Investor and partner visas, employment visas, and family sponsorship can be bundled with your company formation. Pricing depends on the number of visas and the emirate of incorporation.

Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah (RAK), Fujairah, and Umm Al Quwain generally offer lower business setup costs compared to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Free zones in RAK and Fujairah are particularly cost-competitive. Horizon Line compares total costs across all 7 Emirates to match your budget and business goals.
