Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry
With Dubai turning into a land of opportunities, in terms of jobs and businesses, there are thousands of people that migrate there from other countries, with the intention of earning a better livelihood and setting up a successful business.
If you are not a citizen of the United Arab Emirates and seek entry as a foreign national, there are certain rules and regulations to adhere to and certain procedures to follow. As someone looking to start their own business in Dubai, you would need to go through a long process of seeking permission from the Dubai government as well as other government and government-sponsored agencies, both in your home country as well as in Dubai.
The Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry is a public, non-profit organization established in the 1960s, which is responsible for supporting the business community in the Emirate and also works to promote Dubai as a business hub. Given the rate at which Dubai is replacing many places as a leading business destination, there needs to be an organization or agency which oversees all the activities pertaining to the businesses, how they are established and how they are run. The main objectives of the Chamber are:
- To create a suitable and encouraging environment for businesses to run
- Help in the establishment and expansion of businesses
- Manage resources efficiently and to attain excellence
- To promote Dubai as a leading international business hub
One of Dubai Chamber’s main objectives is to keep Chamber members and the business community updated with the latest economic development and regulations, business opportunities, facilities and relevant business contacts through well documented materials.

What is Meant by Attestation in Dubai?
As a foreign national seeking entry into another country for any purpose such as education, work, business, family, etc., you need permission. While the permission comes in the form of a visa, there are steps to getting the visa. A key process is attestation. You have certain documents that you would need to use for legal purposes in that country, and for them to be considered valid, they need to be verified by certain government and government-sponsored agencies. This verification process is called attestation. Your documents and certificates must be checked and stamped by the concerned authorities not only to be able to use them outside but also to provide the authorities key information about yourself. Without getting all the required documents attested in Dubai, chances are, your visa will get denied
