Complainces in UAE
Post-Incorporation & Ongoing Compliance in the UAE
In the UAE, compliance is not just paperwork—it’s your license to operate, grow, and attract global partners.
At CadreHub, we help your UAE company stay ahead of all post-incorporation and annual requirements so you can focus on building your business.
Corporate Governance & Licensing 🏢
📜 Trade License Renewal
Every company must renew its trade license annually with the relevant licensing authority (Mainland: DED, Free Zone: respective authority). Missing the deadline can lead to fines and business suspension.
🏛️ Memorandum & Shareholding Records
Keep your Memorandum of Association (MOA), shareholding structure, and company records updated with the licensing body.
🗂️ Company Secretary / PRO Services
While not mandatory in all jurisdictions, having a corporate secretary or PRO ensures your filings, attestations, and governmental liaisons are handled without delays.
Financial & Tax Compliance 💼
📊 Bookkeeping & Annual Accounts
Maintain proper accounting records and prepare annual financial statements in line with IFRS.

Mainland companies: Annual audit often mandatory.
