DED Al Maktoum: Expert License Amendment Services in Dubai
Dubai is one of the most business-friendly cities in the world, attracting entrepreneurs and investors from all industries. However, as businesses grow, they often need to modify their trade license due to changes in structure, ownership, or activities. This is where license amendment services become essential.
At DED Al Maktoum, we specialize in business license amendments, ensuring your company stays compliant with UAE laws. Whether you need to add new business activities, change ownership, modify trade names, or update shareholder details, our team provides a seamless and efficient process.
What is a License Amendment?
A license amendment refers to any official change or update made to a business trade license issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED) in Dubai or other relevant free zone authorities. This process is required when a company undergoes structural, operational, or ownership modifications.
Failing to update a business license correctly can result in penalties, operational delays, and legal issues. Our team at DED Al Maktoum ensures that all amendments are processed smoothly, allowing businesses to continue operations without interruptions.
Types of Business License Amendments We Handle
At DED Al Maktoum, we provide comprehensive license amendment services for all types of businesses, including mainland, free zone, and offshore companies. Some common amendments include:
1. Adding or Removing Business Activities
If your company wants to expand operations by including new business activities, you must update your license. Similarly, if certain activities are no longer relevant, removing them ensures compliance.
2. Changing the Trade Name
Businesses looking to rebrand or update their company name must apply for a trade name change. This requires approval from DED Dubai or the relevant free zone authority.
3. Changing Company Ownership or Shareholder Structure
If new partners are joining or existing shareholders are exiting, the company’s ownership details must be updated. This involves submitting legal documents, such as share transfer agreements and updated Memorandum of Association (MOA).
4. Modifying the Legal Structure
Businesses that want to transition from a sole proprietorship to an LLC, or from a partnership to a private limited company, must apply for a legal structure amendment.
5. Updating Business Address
If a company relocates to a new office or branch, updating the registered address with DED Dubai is mandatory to ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
6. Appointing or Removing Directors & Managers
Companies frequently hire new directors or replace existing managers. These changes must be reflected in the business license to remain compliant with UAE regulations.
7. Amending Capital Structure
If a company wants to increase or decrease its share capital, the trade license must be updated accordingly. This often requires approval from regulatory bodies and updated MOA documentation.

The process for a license amendment varies depending on the type of change. However, the general steps include:
