For families and business owners in the UAE, we set the order of every decision and coordinate the licensed specialists who carry the plan out.
Under a Full Mandate, we take on the whole matter. We build the plan, set the timetable, introduce the licensed specialists it needs, and coordinate their work. You appoint and contract with each specialist directly.
Our guides set out the UAE rules, and the UK and Indian rules where they apply, each with official sources. The Move Planner shows which decisions apply to you, and in what order.
Each is planned with the rules of the other countries where your family holds assets in view. Advisers licensed in those countries advise on their law.
Company formation in DMCC, other free zones and RAK ICC. Holding companies. Accounting and bookkeeping. UAE corporate tax and VAT advice. These are the services we deliver ourselves, under our DMCC licence and as a RAK ICC registered agent.
The UAE Golden Visa, the UAE tax residency certificate, and preparing personal and business bank account applications.
What to settle before you arrive and after, including the rules of the country you're leaving, from the UK's residence test to India's rules on moving money abroad.
We start with your family, your business, your homes and assets, and what you want to change.
No one is appointed yet. Nothing is committed at this stage.
We set out the decisions in front of you, the order to take them in, and who handles each one.
The specialists your plan needs are named. You approve the plan before anything is signed.
We introduce a licensed specialist for each regulated step.
Tax advisers, law firms, banks and insurers advise on their part. You appoint and contract with each one directly.
We form and administer UAE companies, including RAK ICC companies, and keep their accounts.
Law firms draft wills and legal documents, and a court registry registers each will.
One point of contact coordinates every adviser and deadline against the agreed timetable.
Banks, registries and, where a trust is used, the trustee you appoint complete their steps.
We handle annual registry filings, accounts and renewals, and review the structure when the law or your family changes.
Your licensed advisers keep advising on their own law and products.
