DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — September 15, 2026 – Dahhan Business Services, a Dubai business setup and corporate service provider, is now offering a freelance visa package starting from AED 7,500. This is designed to help eligible professionals establish themselves as independent service providers and work legally in the UAE.

The offering brings together guidance and application assistance for obtaining a freelance permit and associated residency services, subject to the applicant’s eligibility, chosen professional activity, and requirements of the relevant licensing and immigration authorities.

With independent work becoming an increasingly attractive career option, professionals across sectors such as consulting, information technology, digital marketing, design, media, education and other approved activities are exploring ways to operate without establishing a conventional company.

A UAE freelance permit provides an approved legal framework through which qualifying individuals can offer services independently. Applicants requiring UAE residency may also apply for an eligible residence visa connected to their freelance setup.
“Many skilled professionals want the flexibility to build their own client base without taking on the cost and administrative responsibilities of a traditional company structure,” said Najeeb Dahhan, Founder and CEO of Dahhan Business Services. “Our objective is to help applicants understand the available options, select an appropriate activity and complete the required procedures with greater clarity.”

Dahhan Business Services assists applicants at the different stages of the freelance permit and visa application process, including:
- Initial eligibility and activity assessment
- Selection of a suitable licensing option
- Preparation and review of application documents
- Freelance permit application assistance
- Establishment or immigration-card assistance, where applicable
- Entry permit or status-change assistance
- Medical fitness and Emirates ID application coordination
- Residence visa processing support
- Guidance on renewals and ongoing compliance
Freelance visa requirements and procedures may differ depending on the applicant’s nationality, location, existing UAE residence status, profession, licensing authority, and selected package.
