Service Overview
As businesses evolve, their legal structures must keep pace. VIP ELITE manages all official modifications to your UAE company — from shareholder transfers and capital changes to activity additions and trade name changes — with full government compliance.
Making changes to a registered UAE company requires precise coordination with DED, the respective free zone authority, and related ministries. Errors or delays in amendments can interrupt business operations, visa issuance, and banking relationships.
Our team prepares all required resolutions, updated MOA documents, authority submissions, and approvals. We manage shareholder transfers, director changes, capital increases, addition or removal of business activities, and branch restructuring — all with transparent timelines and dedicated advisor support.

FAQ
Common questions answered.
How long do company amendments take?
Simple amendments (address, activity additions) typically take 3–5 working days. Shareholder transfers involving notarization may take 7–14 days depending on court scheduling.
Can I add a new business activity to my existing license?
Yes, in most cases. Some activities require additional approvals from sector-specific authorities (e.g., healthcare, education, financial services). Our team conducts pre-screening before submission.
Do I need to be in Dubai to complete amendments?
Not necessarily. With a Power of Attorney (POA), our team can represent you throughout the amendment process while you remain abroad.
