Local Sponsorship in the UAE

Reliable Emirati Sponsorship Solutions by Turbo Corporate

Planning to set up a Mainland company in the UAE? Most business activities require a UAE national to act as your local sponsor or local service agent.

​

Our pre-vetted Emirati sponsors are trustworthy, professional, and fully aligned with your business goals—no interference, no risk.

What is a Local Sponsor?

A local sponsor is a UAE national (Emirati) who is officially listed as a partner (holding 51% of shares) for specific business activities in the mainland. In most cases, this is a nominal arrangement, where the foreign investor retains 100% financial and operational control through legal agreements.

​

Types of Local Sponsorship in the UAE:

1. Corporate Sponsorship – A UAE-owned company acts as your 51% partner

2. Individual Sponsorship – An Emirati citizen serves as a local sponsor

3. Local Service Agent (LSA) – For professional licenses (100% foreign-owned)

​​

Note: Many business activities today no longer require local sponsorship due to updated foreign ownership laws—but some still do. We’ll advise you accordingly.
