License Services Dubai
Renewal, modification, cancellation and freezing of your UAE trade license. One team handles every change to your license so your business stays compliant and never loses a day of operation.
Every change to your trade license, handled
Your trade license is the legal foundation of your UAE business. It defines what you can do, where you can operate, and what you owe the authorities each year. Over the life of a company that license needs renewing annually, amending when you add activities or change partners, freezing when you pause operations, and cancelling when it is time to close. Each of these is a separate procedure with the Department of Economy and Tourism or your free zone authority, with its own forms, approvals and fees. We manage all four. Our PRO team tracks your renewal dates, prepares and submits amendments, and guides you through freezing or cancellation so nothing is missed and no fines accumulate.

Your license, always compliant
Proactive renewal tracking, fast amendment processing and clear guidance on what each change requires. You never have to chase a government portal again.
Four services, one point of contact
License Renewal
Every UAE license must be renewed annually. We track your expiry date, confirm your tenancy contract and establishment card are current, settle the fees and collect the renewed license. You get a reminder 30 days out and a renewed license before the old one lapses.
License Modification
Add or remove business activities, change your trade name, appoint a new manager, update your address, or transfer shares between partners. We advise on which approvals each change needs, prepare the amended MOA where required, and process the update with the authority.
License Cancellation
Closing a company properly means cancelling visas, clearing government dues, publishing the liquidation notice and obtaining clearance from immigration, labour and the licensing authority. We manage the full sequence so you exit cleanly with no outstanding liabilities.
License Freezing
If you need to pause operations without closing the company, a license freeze suspends your activities for up to three years while preserving your registration. We handle the application, the required clearances and the eventual reactivation when you are ready to resume.

Frequently asked questions about license services
Start at least 30 days before expiry. That leaves room for an expired tenancy contract, outstanding fines or a required inspection. Operating on an expired license attracts monthly penalties and blocks visa processing, so we send managed clients reminders well in advance.
