Terms of use

In short: the figures are sourced and dated, but they are not advice and not a quotation.

Figures checked

Who runs this site

Operator details are published here before this site launches.

By using the site you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use it.

What the figures are

Each figure is copied from the page named in its source marker, on the date shown, and links back to that page. Authorities and free zones change fees without notice, edit their pages and end promotions. Confirm a figure with the authority or the free zone before relying on it for a payment or a decision.

What the figures are not

They are not legal, tax, immigration or financial advice, and they are not an offer. Totals and estimator results are arithmetic on published fees rather than a quotation, and they leave out anything that is not published, including consultants' fees. Whether you qualify for a licence or a visa is for the relevant authority to decide.

Quote requests

When the request service is open, sending a request does not create a contract with us or with any consultant. Consultants who receive it decide for themselves whether to reply and on what terms. Any engagement, price, timetable or refund is agreed between you and that firm; we are not a party to it and do not supervise the work. Consultants may pay us a fee for an introduction. It doesn't change what you pay.

Acceptable use

You are welcome to read, quote and link to the site. Please do not copy it in bulk with automated tools, publish its figures as your own research without credit, send false or someone else's details through a form, or try to disrupt how the site works.

Liability

The site is provided as it is, without warranties. As far as the law allows, the operator is not liable for loss caused by relying on a figure that has since changed at its source, by an error on the site, or by dealings with a consultant you met through it. If you find a mistake, tell us and we will correct it.

Links to other sites

Source markers open government and company websites we do not control. We link to them to show where a figure came from; each has its own terms and privacy policy.

Advertising

The site may show advertising in future. Setup consultants on our website plan may also appear in listings beside the guides, marked as listings. Neither advertisers nor listed firms have any say over the figures, and an advertisement or a listing is not a recommendation.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates. The courts of the emirate where the operator is licensed have jurisdiction over any dispute about them. This does not remove any protection the consumer law of your own country gives you.

Changes

We may update these terms. The version in force is the one on this page, dated .
