Why Dubai is Ideal for Starting an Online Gaming Business
Dubai’s business-friendly environment, tech-driven free zones, and simplified company formation procedures make it an excellent launchpad for online ventures—including gaming businesses.
How to Register Your Gaming Business in the UAE
Starting your gaming company is now easier than ever:
- No special approvals are required to launch a gaming business.
- Simply decide on your business name and proceed with the application.
- Free zones now offer virtual office setups, meaning no physical office is required.
Setup Cost Starts from AED 12,999
This typically includes:
- Business License
- Virtual Office Address
- Optional Visa Package (up to 4 visas can be added based on your needs)
How to Accept Online Payments for Your Gaming Business
Once your company is formed, accepting payments is simple:
- Open a corporate bank account in the UAE
- Register with platforms like Stripe and PayPal
- Start accepting payments from users worldwide
The bank account signatory must hold a valid UAE residency visa to open a corporate bank account.
Is Corporate Tax Applicable for Online Gaming Businesses in the UAE?
Yes, under the new UAE regulations, Corporate Tax (CT) is mandatory for all licensed businesses, including free zone companies. You will need to register with the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) and remain compliant.
Do You Need to Hire an Accountant or Auditor?
While not yet mandatory for all small companies, it is highly recommended to maintain proper bookkeeping and financial reporting. This can be done affordably by outsourcing to platforms like:
