Unlock Electronic Signature Legitimacy for Your Freelance Contracts in UAE

How to eSign a document: electronic signature legitimacy for Freelance Contract in UAE

here at genzone we speak to hundreds of entrepreneurs every single month and one of the most frequently asked questions we get is what is the freelance Visa how can we get the freelance visa and is it worth getting a freelance Visa so in this video I'll be going over the uae's freelance visa and see if it's the right fit for you so the reason why people think the freelance Visa is best suited for them is number one they think that their small business isn't a real business and number two they think that it is cheaper so let's go over just that so the first thing is it doesn't matter how much money your company is making it could literally be making $0 as long as you have a business you're good to go it doesn't have to have a minimum amount of money coming in or out every single month and as for the freelance Visa being cheaper let's talk about it because I'm going to give you some breaking news the freelance Visa is not even a thing it does not exist so when people say that a freelance Visa is cheaper than a business license it doesn't really make sense because in reality breaking news a free freelance Visa is a business license but it's just repurposed and called and branded as a freelance Visa but it's really just a business license now you might not believe me so if you want to go and check this out for yourself head over to u.e which is the government website and please do me a favor and look as hard as you can to find freelance Visa go on the search bar write freelance Visa so if you go on the search bar and write freelance all you'll see is starting a business in a free zone because again it's just repurposed and branded as a freelance Visa but it's really the same thing and if you write freelance Visa then you'll have all of the different Visa options but we don't see any freelance Visa because again it does not exist and your next question might be well Kevin I went on Google and found a ton of options for freelance Visa so you must be lying there must actually be a freelance Visa or all of these people are just scamming but no they're not scamming of course some people might be but there is again something called the freelance Visa but it does not exist officially again like I said it's a business license however the reason why it could be a lot cheaper is because that business license has many more limitations so here are some crucial things you need to know about the freelance Visa depending on what agency you choose the price should be about 50 to 60% of the actual total business license if you're making over 375,000 durhams per year you have to register for vat like a normal company you should still do bookkeeping for your freelancing company although right now there aren't any requirements but this might change in the future with the freelance license I'm going to stop calling it a Visa because again it doesn't really make sense but with this freelance license you cannot hire or sponsor anyone under your company which is a huge benefit of having an official license because of course hiring people and sponsoring people is very important you have to renew this license every single year and again coming back to the cost it could actually be the exact same price as just a full regular business license after all of the Hidden fees that could be found in your freelance license I've seen people pay 9,000 for their license 5,000 for their visa and that price could literally be very comparable to a full license that allows you to do a lot more so after speaking to a lot of people who got this freelance visa and a lot of people who got scammed getting this freelance Visa which is a huge thing so please watch out for that too check Google reviews try to get referrals Etc but after speaking to a lot of people who initially got this license they all regret it I have some people who don't regret it of course but most of them just went into getting the official license and that's why they got in contact with us to help them actually get the proper license for their business activity so if you're considering moving to Dubai and you actually consider a long-term plan here and don't just want to save for like one year then I would highly suggest to go and do it right the first time get an official license with all the stuff that you'll need for your business and of course if you guys have any questions on how to set up your company and want our help to help you set up in Dubai please book a call with us down below and our team would be more than happy to assist you set up your company so if you have any more questions comment them down below and I'll see you all in the next video
