PRO Services and Government Liaison for UAE Companies
We handle your UAE company's dealings with government offices: the establishment card, the immigration file, visas for founders and staff, and renewals. You run the business instead of standing in queues and working through portals.
Once a UAE company gets its license, a steady stream of admin work begins, and PRO services in the UAE exist to handle it. The company needs an establishment card: its registration in the immigration system, without which it cannot sponsor visas. It has to keep an immigration file, issue and renew visas for founders and employees, and update documents whenever something changes. This work is done by a PRO, a specialist who deals with government offices on the company's behalf.
Large companies keep their own PRO. For a small business it is usually easier to hand these tasks over to a support team. We check the starting point first: the sponsor type, the current status of each person, the medical requirements, and whether an entry permit or a change of status is needed. Then we lay out the sequence of steps and keep track of the deadlines.

Timeline
Timing depends on the type of application, the medical test, biometrics and processing; we give an estimate after reviewing your case.
Timelines are approximate: government agencies, consulates and banks set them.
What to watch out for
- Without a valid establishment card, visas cannot be issued or renewed
- Expired visas and documents lead to fines
- The immigration authority makes the visa decision, and it cannot be sped up
- Errors in employee details send the application back and push the timeline
FAQ
How much does it cost?
Our service fee is on request. Government fees, translations, insurance and other mandatory costs are paid separately; we send the full estimate before you sign.
What is a UAE establishment card?
It is the company's registration in the UAE immigration system. Without it, the company cannot sponsor visas for founders or employees. The card is issued after the license and renewed when it expires, so it is one of the first documents we check when we take on a company.
How long does a visa take?
It depends on the type of application, the medical test, biometrics and how the documents are processed. We give an estimate after reviewing the situation of each person, because the sponsor type and current status change the sequence of steps.
Can I get a visa if I am not in the UAE right now?
Some steps go ahead without you, but the medical test and biometrics require you to be in the country. We plan the stages so that your trip is as short as possible and everything that can be done in advance is ready before you arrive.
Do you help with license renewal?
Yes, license renewals and amendments are a separate service. It helps when one team handles both the license and the visas: the deadlines stay in sync, and nothing expires unnoticed because two different people were watching two different calendars.
Does a small company need PRO services in the UAE?
If you have one or two visas, you can order PRO support as needed, task by task. With more employees, regular support saves time and lowers the risk of missed deadlines and the fines that come with them.
Do you guarantee the result?
No. Decisions are made by government agencies, consulates and banks. We are responsible for preparing and checking documents, filing and support, and we tell you about the risks upfront.
