Frequently Asked Questions?
Can I get these clearances on my own?
What happens if I don’t clear DEWA or Etisalat?
They may block your Emirates ID or impose late payment fees. This can delay or prevent liquidation.
Do Free Zone companies also need these clearances?
Yes — most Free Zones require at least 3–5 NOCs including MOHRE, FTA, and utilities.
Are these clearances needed even for dormant or inactive companies?
Yes. Authorities will still require official closure documentation to finalize deregistration.
