Current Business Partners Conversion from Branch of a Foreign Company to a FZ-LLC
While operating as a Branch of a Company, any Business Partner is allowed to convert their legal status from a Branch to a FZ-LLC. However, the new FZ-LLC will initially be owned by the same parent Company.

After receiving the required documents from the client, the Authority will issue the following to the client:
- Certificate of Incorporation
- Notarize the MOA & AOA
- Issue the new License to reflect the new legal structure of the Company.
