Document Verification When Buying a Ready-Made Company in the UAE

Before purchasing a ready-made company in the UAE, a mandatory step is legal, financial, and regulatory verification. This is a key process that protects against hidden risks, bank or regulator blocks, and ensures the safety of the transaction. MIRAD conducts comprehensive due diligence, after which you make a balanced and legally protected decision.


What the Verification of a Ready-Made Company Includes

  • Legal purity — checking the license, MOA/AOA, addendums, compliance of founders and signatories in registers.
  • Financial history — analysis of reports, taxes, debts, fines, and obligations to government bodies and banks.
  • Banking status — checking active account, tariff, blocks, and likelihood of repeated KYC when changing owner.
  • License and types of activities — relevance of the license, possibility of renewal and change of activities.
  • History of interaction with government bodies — court cases, visa quotas, e-channel, sanctions from regulators.
  • Rights to assets — checking real estate, leases, restrictions from developers, possibility of transferring assets through share changes.

Why Verification is Needed

  • Bank refusal to update profile or account blocking.
  • Loss of access to company funds.
  • Fines for violations by previous owners.
  • Inability to change or renew the license.
