Can two companies use the same Ejari ドバイで?

It is generally unsafe to assume that one Ejari issued in the name of 会社 A can be submitted unchanged for 会社 B.

The Ejari normally identifies a particular tenant. If 会社 B is not named in the underlying contract or supported by an approved sharing, sublease or occupancy arrangement, it may have no documented right to use the premises.

A licensing 当局 may reject the application where:

The correct solution is not to alter or informally reuse the existing document. It is to establish which approved occupancy structure the licensing 当局 will accept for the second 会社.

Both companies carry out work at the same premises. They may have separate rooms, desks, 従業員, records and signage.

Both licences display the same building and unit address, subject to 当局 approval.

Both companies are named or otherwise legally recognised under the occupancy documents, where the landlord and 登録 system permit it.

A tenancy certificate issued solely to one 法務 entity is submitted for another entity without a supporting right of occupancy. This is the arrangement most likely to cause licensing or コンプライアンス difficulties.

Two companies may share a location without literally using the same Ejari certificate in the same way. The second 会社 might instead hold an approved sublease, office-sharing permit or 事業-centre agreement.

Is There One ドバイ-Wide Rule?

A メインランド 会社 licensed through ドバイ's Department of Economy and 観光 follows the applicable メインランド licensing and premises requirements. Each フリーゾーン applies its own 会社 and property rules.

A landlord's NOC, for example, may satisfy the property owner but not the licensing 当局. Similarly, a licensing 当局's preliminary acceptance does not override a lease that prohibits subletting.

ドバイ tenancy law is especially important where 会社 A is the principal tenant and 会社 B will occupy part of its office.

Article 24 of ドバイ Law No. 26 of 2007 provides that, unless the lease states otherwise, a tenant may not assign the use of or sublease the property to a third party without the landlord's written consent.

The law also permits a landlord to seek eviction where a tenant sublets the property or part of it without written approval. ドバイ Law No. 26 of 2007

A メインランド 会社 cannot assume that a フリーゾーン office will satisfy メインランド premises requirements.

FTA guidance explains that adequate substance involves conducting core income-generating activities in the フリーゾーン and maintaining appropriate assets, qualified 従業員 and operating expenditure in relation to those activities. FTA ガイド on フリーゾーン Persons

A shared office or flexi-desk does not automatically satisfy or fail the substance test. The assessment depends on the 会社's activities, income and operational facts.

A フリーゾーン 会社 working substantially from a メインランド office should obtain 税務 advice rather than assuming its 0% treatment remains unaffected.

Yes, in certain approved structures. The lease, landlord, licensing 当局, building rules, office size and 事業 activities must all permit the arrangement.

Not automatically. An Ejari issued solely in one 会社's name does not by itself give another 会社 the right to occupy the premises.

3. Does each メインランド 会社 need its own Ejari?

Each 会社 normally needs independently acceptable evidence of occupancy. This may be a separate Ejari or another approved document such as a sublease, office-sharing permit or authorised 事業-centre agreement.

Possibly, but common ownership alone is insufficient. The companies may need landlord consent, proof of their relationship and licensing-当局 approval.

The arrangement may breach the lease and ドバイ tenancy law. The landlord may have grounds to seek eviction, subject to the applicable 法務 process.

Not necessarily. The licensing 当局, building manager, master developer or sector regulator may require additional approval.

Only where the relevant フリーゾーン, メインランド 当局, landlord and property rules permit it. A formal ライセンス, branch, dual-licensing or office arrangement may be required.

It should not be assumed. The フリーゾーン property rules and メインランド licensing requirements must both allow the arrangement.

Often, yes, if the 事業 centre is authorised and issues the documents required for each 会社. 事業活動 and ビザ restrictions may still apply.

Usually, each 会社 requires its own フリーゾーン-approved facility package or agreement. One 会社's flexi-desk cannot automatically be reused for another entity.

A residential tenancy should not ordinarily be used as commercial premises for two businesses. Property classification, ライセンス rules and tenancy restrictions must be respected.

The companies remain separate taxable persons unless an approved 税務 treatment applies. Shared costs and intercompany charges must be documented correctly.

Potentially. A 適格フリーゾーン事業者 must satisfy adequate-substance and other conditions. The real operating location should be considered in the 税務 analysis.

That depends on the 法務 arrangement. A rent or サービス recharge may be appropriate, but it must be permitted by the lease and properly treated for VAT, 会計 and 法人税.

Possibly, where the relevant 当局 approve the arrangement and both companies hold acceptable occupancy evidence.

A mailing arrangement does not necessarily satisfy licensing or operational-premises requirements. The 当局 should approve the precise arrangement.
