Foreign Company Representation
A representative office of a foreign company is different legally from that of its branch office opened in ABU DHABI. In a representative office, a foreign company is only allowed to promote its parental / main company’s activities. That is, if the main company deals in the sale or production of any products, this company can open a representative office in ABU DHABI, which will be only able to promote or involve in marketing, sales, or production of the specific products by using their contacts in ABU DHABI (UNITED ARAB EMIRATES), but they cannot conduct sales or produce a product themselves. Representative offices also have another restriction in that they are not allowed to obtain credit facilities, and visas obtained are only for 3 or 4 members. This type of setup falls under Foreign Company Registration, which ensures compliance with local regulations while allowing the company to establish a promotional presence.
