Post-incorporation support is where most setups fail. GBS provides ongoing services that keep your Dubai company compliant year after year: annual trade license renewals with DED or free zone authority, Establishment Card renewals with MOHRE, visa renewals with GDRFA, MOA amendments, shareholder changes, activity additions, UBO updates,Corporate Tax annual filings with FTA, VAT returns, and audit-ready accounting through our Kothari Auditors & Accountants (KAA) network.
