uae freezone vs onshore

Local partners have no involvement in your business. They have no powers and sign a deed to that effect which is lodged at the courts.

It's a little more expensive than Freezone but worth every penny.
Also for PE restrictions there is a local partner so it starts to tick the boxes.

Bank account is much easier to get.

we like captK.

Thats what I thought. Although there is only a question if a local person should be a natural person or a company that is owned by a local person.

Dont fancy gettin ginvolved in messy divorces or inheritances...........

Not all businesses require a local sponsor in UAE Mainland. Professional companies do not require a UAE local sponsor or partnership with a UAE national and can be under 100% foreign ownership.

Professional companies that engage in Business Services, Project Management and Finance Broker do not require a local sponsor. This route does require a bit more leg work. The advantage is you get a 3 year investors visa, you can get visa's for family.
There is an emphasis on on PE in very loose terms ie having a flexi office, and mail box but that is really it.

Bank account is not a problem neither

Just my 2 pence... depending on the nature of your business and the profile of your local partner the LLC can open alot of doors and come with many advantages.

Definitely, if your sponsor is "someone" in the UAE the doors it opens are invaluable. Some sponsors charge a extra high fee's because of who they are. You can imagine if your sponsor is the head of immigration, banks clerks are more motivated to ensure you get your account. Seeing as the majority of workers are immigrants. ns2fin4774"

through connections and recommendations... I might be able to help but I need to understand what you are trying to do as they wouldn't want to be involved in anything not "above board" for reputation reasons.
