A Mainland License authorises a company to operate anywhere in the UAE outside a free zone, directly with consumers, private businesses, and government entities. It is issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED) of the relevant emirate — for example DED Dubai or ADDED in Abu Dhabi. Since 2021, most mainland commercial activities allow 100% foreign ownership without a local Emirati sponsor, though certain strategic or regulated activities still require Emirati participation. Mainland entities pay 9% corporate tax on taxable income above AED 375,000, can bid for government contracts, and face no geographic restrictions on where they open offices or stores. Compliance with labour, VAT, Emiratisation, anti-money-laundering, and ultimate beneficial ownership rules is mandatory.
