Choose your company name and we handle the approval process. We check name availability in SRTIP database, ensure compliance with UAE naming regulations, suggest alternatives if your preferred name is unavailable, submit the name reservation application, and receive approval typically within 24 hours. We guide you on naming conventions, help you create a professional business name, and ensure your name reflects your brand identity while meeting all regulatory requirements.
Leads Accountancy prepares all necessary documents for your SRTIP company formation. We collect required documents from you including passport copies, visa copies, photographs, address proof, and business plan. Then we prepare Memorandum of Association, draft Articles of Association, create shareholder agreements, prepare application forms, compile supporting documents, and submit everything to SRTIP authorities. Our team ensures all documents meet exact specifications to avoid delays or rejections.
We help you choose the perfect office space based on your needs and budget. Options include flexi-desk starting from AED 5,000 annually, co-working space with multiple desks, private SME office (20-27 sqm), ecosystem office (50-80 sqm), innovation office (custom size), and industrial plots for manufacturing. We arrange office viewing, negotiate lease terms, prepare lease agreement, and handle all rental documentation. Your office can be ready within days of license approval.
Once documents and office are confirmed, we submit your complete application to SRTIP. The authorities review your application, verify all documents, process the trade license, and issue initial approval usually within 2-3 working days. After initial approval, we pay government fees, complete final registrations, and receive your official SRTIP trade license. Leads Accountancy manages the entire process so you don't need to visit government offices or deal with bureaucratic procedures.
After your company is registered, we begin visa processing for you and your employees. The process includes applying for establishment card, completing e-channel registration, filing e-visa applications, arranging medical fitness tests including blood tests and chest x-rays, scheduling biometrics appointments for fingerprints and photos, processing health insurance if required, obtaining visa approvals from immigration, stamping entry permits, and issuing Emirates ID cards. The complete visa process takes 2-3 weeks, and we coordinate every step to make it smooth and hassle-free.

We have partnerships with major banks including Emirates NBD, Mashreq Bank, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, Dubai Islamic Bank, and others. We prepare required banking documents, arrange bank meetings, accompany you to the bank, assist with account application, follow up on approval status, and ensure your account is activated quickly.

Lower Costs Compared to Dubai Free Zones
SRTIP offers significantly lower setup costs compared to popular Dubai free zones like DMCC, DAFZA, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai Internet City, and Dubai Media City. License fees are 30-50% cheaper, office rental rates are more affordable, visa processing costs are competitive, and overall business setup investment is substantially lower. For budget-conscious entrepreneurs and startups with limited capital, SRTIP provides the same benefits as expensive Dubai free zones but at a fraction of the cost. You get 100% ownership, tax exemptions, full repatriation rights, and business credibility without the premium Dubai pricing.
More Flexible Business Activities
Unlike specialized free zones that restrict activities to specific sectors, SRTIP allows a broad range of business activities across trading, services, manufacturing, technology, and research sectors. This flexibility lets you diversify your business, add new revenue streams, expand into different markets, and adapt your business model as needed. Many free zones have rigid activity restrictions that limit growth, but SRTIP provides the freedom to evolve your business according to market opportunities and customer demands.
Dual License Advantage for Mainland Trading
SRTIP’s dual license feature is a major competitive advantage. Most UAE free zones require you to set up a separate mainland company (with 51% UAE national ownership) to trade with local businesses and serve the domestic market. This means double the setup costs, double the licensing fees, complex ownership structures, and administrative burden. SRTIP eliminates this need by allowing free zone companies to operate on the mainland with a single license. This saves money, simplifies operations, provides market flexibility, and opens up business opportunities across all Emirates without additional company formation.
Better Location Than Other Sharjah Free Zones
Compared to other Sharjah free zones like Hamriyah Free Zone (in the far industrial area), Sharjah Airport International Free Zone (limited to airport-related activities), and Sharjah Media City (restricted to media businesses), SRTIP offers superior location and accessibility. University City location provides excellent connectivity to Sharjah International Airport, easy access to Dubai via E11 highway, proximity to residential areas for employee convenience, modern infrastructure and facilities, well-planned surroundings with amenities, and professional business environment. The location matters for client visits, employee commute, logistics efficiency, and overall business operations.

Support for Technology and Innovation Startups
SRTIP is specifically designed to support technology companies, innovation startups, and research-based businesses. Unlike general-purpose free zones, SRTIP understands the unique needs of tech entrepreneurs including flexible funding structures, support for intellectual property development, understanding of agile business models, connections with venture capital and angel investors, acceptance of innovative business concepts, and support services tailored for technology businesses. If you’re building a tech startup, developing innovative products, or working on research projects, SRTIP provides the specialized support, understanding, and environment that general free zones cannot offer.
Innovation Ecosystem and Networking Opportunities
While most free zones just provide office space and licenses, SRTIP offers a complete innovation ecosystem. You gain access to networking events with potential investors, business partners, and clients, mentorship programs with experienced entrepreneurs, connections with universities and research institutions, collaboration opportunities with other innovative companies, participation in innovation challenges and competitions, access to funding and investment opportunities, business support services and consulting, training programs and skill development workshops, and industry-specific events and conferences. This ecosystem accelerates business growth, opens partnership opportunities, provides learning resources, and connects you with the innovation community.
