Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What are the new Prescribed Company Regulations in DIFC?

Effective July 15, 2024, the DIFC has revised its PC Regulations to broaden the eligibility criteria for Prescribed Companies. Companies can now qualify if they are controlled by GCC Persons, Registered Persons, or Authorized Firms; are set up to hold GCC Registrable Assets; are established for a Qualifying Purpose; or have a director from a DFSA-registered Corporate Service Provider.

What is the application process for the Incorporation of Prescribed Company in the DIFC?

To complete the process, first, submit a certified passport copy or undergo online verification with the DIFC. Then, apply for Initial Approval via the portal, specifying whether the Prescribed Company will have a CSP and if their address will be shared. Once Initial Approval is granted, register the entity through the portal. If a CSP is appointed, upload their letter of appointment or consent. Additionally, if the Prescribed Company will share office space with an affiliated entity, provide a letter of consent from the lease holder or owner of the space.

How does a CSP facilitate the establishment of a Prescribed Company in DIFC?

An individual or corporate entity that doesn’t meet the qualifications for a Prescribed Company can still establish one by appointing a director who is an employee of a DFSA-regulated CSP. This CSP must have an agreement with the DIFC Registrar of Companies to handle certain compliance and AML functions on behalf of the Prescribed Company.

Is Prescribed company in DIFC allowed to have employees?
