Shelf Company Formation in Dubai
A shelf company comes handy to optimise time-efficiency of business set up. A shelf company is a ready to sell corporate establishment. The shelf company owner registers for a company, maintains the company in regards with all financial as well as legal needs. Another entity can buy this company by wasting no time in documentation and registration procedures. Hence, the name given is ‘shelf company’ where a company is formed and kept in shelf for a potential sale.
A company can be formed via two ways in: first, buy a shelf company for a hassle free start focused on your business or second, open a new company and apply for the registration with all the required documents and await for approvals of licenses for your particular business.
Let’s discuss both the facets of the company formation.
