Mainland Women’s Salon Setup for Nancy Nelly

Client Overview
Nancy Nelly approached RIZ & MONA CONSULTANCY with a clear entrepreneurial vision: to open a women’s beauty salon in Dubai Mainland.
Setting up a salon requires multiple government approvals, strict compliance, and a sequence of steps, including licensing, documentation, and visa issuance. Nancy wanted a partner who could manage the entire process smoothly from start to finish — allowing her to focus on planning her business operations.
Client Requirement
Nancy needed complete assistance with:
- Trade Name Approval
- Name Reservation
- MOA (Memorandum of Association)
- Trade License (Salon Activity)
- Establishment Card
- Employment Visa
- Investor Visa
This was a full mainland setup involving both licensing and residency procedures.
Our Step-by-Step Strategy & Execution
1. Trade Name Approval & Reservation
We began the process by helping Nancy select and register a salon trade name that met all DED guidelines.
Once approved, the name was formally reserved to move forward with the license application.
2. Drafting & Issuing the MOA
We prepared the Memorandum of Association, customized for her salon activity and ownership structure.
Nancy reviewed and signed the MOA as part of the legal formation requirements.
3. Trade License Issuance
After the MOA and required documents were submitted, we proceeded with the Trade License application under the salon category.
The license was issued without any delays — officially enabling her to operate a women’s salon in Dubai Mainland.
4. Establishment Card Processing
An establishment card is required to apply for visas under the company.
We completed this step promptly, enabling Nancy to sponsor employees and proceed with her own residency visa.
5. Employment Visa
For her salon operations, Nancy required an employee.
We managed:
- Entry permit
- Medical tests
- Biometrics
- Emirates ID
- Visa stamping
Everything was handled in sequence, ensuring compliance at each stage.
6. Investor Visa
Finally, Nancy also applied for her Investor Visa, giving her full legal residency and the ability to manage her salon operations independently.
All visa processes were completed smoothly and efficiently.
Challenges
There were no challenges during this project.
All documents were provided on time, approvals were straightforward, and every step moved forward without complications.
