Business — end-to-end support
Set up and run your company in Dubai, in the same place as your desk
Your licence, your Ejari, your accounting, your payroll and your office. One team, one contact, and nobody selling you a dream.
In short
Setting up a company in Dubai takes, in practice, 14 working days in a free zone and 5 to 7 working days for an offshore. A mainland licence also requires an address registered with Ejari. Oh My Desk provides the address, the office and the coordination; the licence, the visas and the accounting go through our team and our licensed partners.

Why founders choose us
Why do it here rather than somewhere else
A company formation firm sells you a licence, then leaves you to find an office. A coworking operator rents you an office, then leaves you to find a firm. We do both in the same building, and that is the only reason that should make up your mind: the address on your licence is the one where you put your laptop.
In practice, that removes the back-and-forth that costs three weeks: the Ejari is issued on a contract we sign ourselves, the meeting room where you receive your bank is on the same floor, and the day you go from two people to six, we change the office without touching the licence.
- Everything under one roofLicence, Ejari, office, accounting, payroll and legal — coordinated by one team, in the building where you work.
- Licensed partners, namedWe are a workspace operator. What only a law firm, an accountant or an immigration agent may do, we say so — and we tell you who does it.
- One contact, start to finishThe same person follows your file from the first call to the day you pick up your keys. No ticket number.
Everything you need, under one roof
We support four things, and only four — because those are the ones we have a team for. Each page says what is mandatory, within what deadline, and what we cannot promise you.
From idea to operating company
A simple, transparent process, designed for founders.
What we do, and what we do not do
We are not a law firm, not an accounting firm and not an immigration agent. We are a workspace operator that coordinates licensed partners — and we would rather write that plainly than let you find out halfway through.
What we do directly: the business address and the Ejari, the office or the desk, the meeting room for your appointments, and end-to-end coordination of your file. What goes through a licensed partner, billed by them: the licence itself, the visas, the accounting, the audit and the legal advice.
