Individual e-trader licence
Solo seller living in the UAE
A solo seller living in the UAE can often start on an individual e-trader licence. It’s a licence in your own name, not a company.
We compare the e-trader vs e-commerce licence side by side in a separate guide.
Free zone or mainland licence
Staff, visas or a company name
Want staff, visas or a company name? Then you need a full licence from a free zone or the mainland.
Zones differ a lot, so pick a free zone for your online business with your products in mind.
Who our setup service is for
You want to sell on Amazon.ae or Noon under your own company.
You run your own online store and ship to customers across the UAE.
You sell on Instagram or TikTok and now need a company, staff or a bank account.
You work here and want your own online business on the side or full time.
You live outside the UAE and want a Dubai company to sell into the Gulf.
How we get your licence, step by step
We learn what you sell and where. You get a route, and we send a fixed quote after the call.
We choose your e-commerce activity and reserve your trade name.
We file your documents and collect your licence. You sign a few forms. We do the rest.
You attend your medical test and biometrics if you need a residence visa.
We apply for your bank account. Then you can connect a payment gateway to your store.
What it costs
Three things move the price
- Route. An individual e-trader licence costs far less than a company.
- Visas. Each residence visa adds government fees and a medical test.
- Office. A flexi-desk costs less than a warehouse or a showroom.
Why online sellers choose DASA
Licence, visa, bank account, VAT and books sit with one team. You don’t chase five providers.
We match the licence to how you sell. A wrong activity can get a marketplace application rejected.
Your online sales need VAT and bookkeeping once you trade. We handle both after your licence.
You know the price before we start.
Common questions about an e-commerce license in the UAE
Can I get a residence visa with an e-commerce license?
Yes, with a company licence from a free zone or the mainland. Your package sets how many visas you can hold.
What documents do I need to start?
Your passport copy and a photo start most applications. Some routes ask for more, like proof of address. We send you the exact list after your call.
Can I set up my e-commerce company from outside the UAE?
Yes. We can handle most of the licence stage while you’re abroad. You travel for your visa medical and biometrics. Most banks also want to meet you.
Can I sell on Amazon.ae and Noon with this licence?
Yes, if the licence covers trading. See what each marketplace asks for when selling on Amazon and Noon.
How long does it take to get my e-commerce license with you?
It depends on your route and how fast you send documents. The bank account usually takes the longest. You get a timeline with your quote.
