What is Corporate Law in the UAE?
Corporate law in the UAE is the set of rules that governs how companies are formed, managed, operated, restructured, and dissolved. The main legislation is Federal Decree-Law No. 32 of 2021, which outlines how different business entities—such as LLCs and joint-stock companies—must be structured and governed.
The UAE has modernized its corporate system to attract investors, including allowing 100% foreign ownership in many sectors and strengthening governance and compliance requirements. Companies in UAE free zones—such as DIFC, ADGM, JAFZA, and DMCC—follow their own regulatory frameworks in addition to general commercial laws.
