An establishment file in the UAE is an official company record created with the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE). It serves as the foundation for all labour-related services, including hiring employees, issuing work permits, and managing employment contracts.

Opening a new establishment in Dubai requires registering your company’s details in MOHRE’s system, which includes:

  • Trade licence information
  • Company activities and legal structure
  • Authorised signatories
  • Contact and office details

This registration is mandatory for any business that intends to employ staff in Dubai, ensuring full compliance with UAE labour laws. Without an active establishment file, a company cannot legally issue work permits, submit labour contracts, or process labour-related transactions.

At Dar Alnukhba Customer Care Center, we assist businesses in creating their establishment files quickly and accurately. Our team handles all documentation, verification, and submission through official MOHRE channels, ensuring that your company is fully compliant and ready to hire employees legally.

By opening your establishment with expert guidance, you can streamline business operations, avoid regulatory penalties, and start recruiting employees efficiently under UAE labour regulations.

Any company holding a valid trade licence and planning to hire employees must open a new establishment file with MOHRE. This applies to:

  • Newly formed businesses
  • Existing companies opening new branches
  • Licensed recruitment or mediation agencies

Without an active establishment file, no labour or work permit transactions can be processed in Dubai.

At Dar Alnukhba Customer Care Center, we provide complete legal support, prepare the required documents, and submit the application through official MOHRE channels to minimise errors and delays.

The required documents typically include:

  • Valid trade licence
  • Emirates ID and residence visa copies of owners, partners, and authorised signatories
  • Partners’ addendum (if partner names are not listed on the licence)
  • MOHRE-issued personal identification number for all relevant parties
  • Unified Number for establishments under the same licensee

Depending on the business activity, additional approvals may be required, such as agency guarantee references, boat licences, or utility licences.

The establishment card is generally issued within two working days once all documents are properly submitted and verified through MOHRE systems.

Dar Alnukhba manages the entire process efficiently to ensure timely issuance and prevent delays.

The official costs typically include:

  • Taq’eem report fee: AED 406
  • Service commission: Up to AED 72 (if processed through a business centre)

These amounts exclude VAT and collection charges. Our team provides a detailed and transparent cost breakdown before submission.

Note: After opening the establishment file, future changes may require an establishment card update.

A UAE establishment card is valid for two years from the date of issuance. It must be renewed before expiry to maintain compliance with labour regulations and continue processing work permits.

We assist clients with timely renewals to avoid service interruptions.

The Unified Number is an identification code assigned to all establishments registered under the same licensee. It links MOHRE records with immigration systems, ensuring consistency across government platforms.

Without a Unified Number, employment and visa transactions cannot be processed.

The establishment card number is generated by MOHRE when the file is created. It appears on the electronic establishment card and serves as the company’s official employer code for all labour transactions.

The number can also be retrieved through MOHRE’s digital services or with assistance from Dar Alnukhba Customer Care Center.

Without a valid establishment file, a company cannot:

  • Hire employees
  • Apply for work permits
  • Process labour-related transactions

Failure to register may also result in non-compliance with MOHRE regulations, which could impact trade licence renewal or other government approvals.

Dar Alnukhba ensures your establishment file is properly registered so all labour and immigration procedures can proceed smoothly and legally.
