- Has no pending dues to local municipalities (rents, violations, permits)
- Has officially de-registered from Dubai Chamber’s records

Frequently Asked Questions?
Are municipality and chamber clearances required for Free Zone companies?
It depends on the Free Zone and location of your business. We assess each case individually.
What if I had violations or unpaid municipal fines?
We help review the fine information and explain the authority’s settlement or review requirements. The relevant authority decides any appeal, waiver or NOC.
Is physical presence required?
Attendance and representation requirements depend on the authority and your circumstances. Confirm these directly with the relevant authority. We help you understand the requirements and prepare supporting records.
