Dubai Residency · June 9 - 22, 2027
Residency
We match you with the right license and register your UAE company.
Your new company becomes the sponsor for your residence visa.
Your medical test, biometrics, and Emirates ID application.
We handle all three steps.
Dubai was built for exactly this. It sits within an eight-hour flight of about two-thirds of the world's population, there's no personal income tax, and the whole city runs on entrepreneurs.
In June, I'm taking a small group to Dubai to set up their companies and get their UAE residency. Our formation partners and attorneys do the heavy lifting. You get a half-day business seminar with me, and some of the most over-the-top experiences on the planet in between.
Registration closes April 2, 2027.
What You Get
Your personal income isn't taxed in the UAE.
A UAE company and an address that opens doors worldwide.
Direct flights almost everywhere, from one of the busiest airports.
A stable government, a dollar-pegged currency, and safe streets.
A legal place to live, built on English and modern infrastructure.
Options to add family and staff as your business grows.
Together
Picture doing this on your own.
First you pick a jurisdiction. Mainland or free zone? The UAE has more than 40 free zones, and each one has its own rules, fees, office requirements, and list of approved business activities. Pick the wrong license activity, and you may not be allowed to do the work you actually do, which means paying to fix it later.
Then come the details nobody mentions upfront. How many visas your license allows. Whether you need a desk or an office to qualify. Your entry permit, your medical test, your biometrics, your Emirates ID, and your visa stamping, each with its own appointment. Then registering your company with the tax authority on time, because missing that deadline comes with a fine.
Meanwhile, you're sorting through dozens of setup agents online, all promising the cheapest package, many with fees that only show up after you've paid.
With us, you skip all of that. We've spent years building relationships with formation partners and attorneys we trust. We match you with the right setup for your business, tell you exactly what to send, and get your company and visa moving before you land. Once your company is set up, you work directly with our partners for renewals and future needs, so you're never stuck waiting on a middleman.
Paperwork
Your company comes first, because it's what qualifies you for residency. The full process takes two to three months, and it starts as soon as you register, well before you land.
June 9 - 22, 2027
Our first night, we gather under the stars. We'll meet in a lantern-lit heritage courtyard in old Dubai, share rich, slow-cooked Emirati platters, and get to know one another over traditional Arabic coffee. By the end of the night, a group of strangers starts to feel like your people.
Our group WhatsApp opens weeks before the trip, so names, questions, and flight plans get sorted early. We'll also send our recommended hotels and apartment hotels, all within walking distance of each other in the same neighborhood, so it's easy to meet up for coffee, dinner, or a spontaneous night out, in small groups or all together.
We schedule them, point you to the right place, and our partners handle the paperwork. The rest of the time, Dubai is yours.
We'll dig into how to actually use your new company and residency: structuring your business, the questions to ask your accountant, and what to do in your first 90 days.
It might be a film premiere, a games night, or a painting party, always with good food and real conversation about life and business abroad. I'm your host for the whole trip, and I'm easy to reach whenever you need me.
The group votes:
Glide down the creek on a traditional wooden boat while the skyline glows gold around you and dinner is served on deck.
Ride camels across the dunes, hang on for dune bashing in a 4x4, sandboard down the slopes, then settle in for dinner and a show as the desert goes dark and the stars come out.
Wander dozens of countries' pavilions in one night, with street food from everywhere, music, lights, and shopping until your feet give out.
Follow the scent of saffron and cardamom through the spice market, watch the gold market glitter, haggle like a pro, and cross the creek on a wooden abra boat for one dirham.
