What if my DMCC trade licence expires before I renew it?

Last updated: Oct 21, 2026, 17:46 (UTC+08:00)

The company falls out of good standing: visa renewals and new visas are blocked, banks may restrict the account, and DMCC applies its own late fees (confirm current amounts with your specialist). Renewal also needs the lease and the latest audited accounts in order, so we start the renewal well before the expiry date.
