Over the past decade, Dubai has emerged as one of the top business destinations in the world. Dubai has continued to be a favorite location for investors around the world as it remains tax free and diverse in its policy. Most of the investors prefer to setup Limited Liability Company or LLC Company in Dubai.

The Limited Liability Company can be formed with minimum of 2 and a maximum of 50 shareholders and the liability of shareholders are limited to their own share in the company capital. The LLC Companies are restricted to perform some kind of business activities like banking, insurance or money investment.

A Limited Liability Company requires an Emirati local partner or silent partner with 51% of share in the company and the expatriate investor will hold 49% of share. After all legal procedures are done, this local partner or silent partner will make an agreement in the court that he has no involvement in the company.
