📌 No matter what type of business you own in Dubai, it is required to cancel the business license and all related permits associated with it when you have made the decision to liquidate the business.
“As per the UAE commercial companies’ law, it is mandatory for shareholders of any business to execute the company closure procedures and pay all required closure fees to the license issuing authority. If a license is left to lapse past the expiry date, monthly penalties would be applied in perpetuity and this can lead to a police/criminal case in the name of the shareholders against cumulated debt.” – our CEO – Marianna Bulbuc declared to The National
