Switching PRO providers in 7 days — without disruption
“Switching to ZETUP PRO was the best operational decision we made in 2025. For the first time, our visa renewals happen on schedule and our invoices match what we agreed.”
A mid-market Dubai construction company was bleeding budget on PRO surprise charges and missing visa-renewal deadlines. Within a week of engaging ZETUP PRO, the full handover from their previous provider was complete with zero compliance gap.
From non-compliant to fully Emiratised in 90 days
“ZETUP PRO handled our entire Emiratisation compliance setup and we went from non-compliant to fully meeting our target in under three months.”
A 70-employee hospitality group was facing AED 27,000+ per month in Emiratisation non-compliance fines. ZETUP PRO mapped the gaps, registered them on Nafis, and helped them place 3 Emirati employees in skilled roles within 90 days — with subsidies recovering most of the salary cost.
Bringing modern PRO to a 30-year-old family business
“Our family business has been in Dubai for three generations. ZETUP PRO is the first PRO partner that understands our culture and gives us a written invoice we can audit. Long overdue.”
A 30-year-old Dubai trading group with 110 employees had used the same PRO 'fixer' for two decades — based on personal trust and cash invoices. As the business modernised (corporate banking, audit, succession), they needed a PRO partner with proper invoicing and digital records. ZETUP PRO took over without disrupting the relationship-based culture.
From Berlin to Business Bay — first UAE entity in 5 weeks
“We came in expecting Dubai bureaucracy to be a black box. ZETUP PRO walked us through everything in plain English, gave us a Notion-ready timeline, and our trade licence was in our hands in under 5 weeks.”
A Berlin-headquartered SaaS startup planned a Dubai mainland subsidiary as their first UAE office. They needed a partner who could explain the system to non-Arabic speakers, work async with their European product team, and get a trade licence + first 3 visas issued in their MVP timeline. ZETUP PRO delivered in 5 weeks.
Cutting PRO costs 40% while doubling visa volume
“After years of surprise fees from our previous PRO company, ZETUP PRO's transparency is genuinely refreshing. They told us the price, delivered the service, and the invoice matched.”
A 35-employee consultancy was paying AED 14,000/month for PRO services that bundled government fees opaquely. ZETUP PRO took over with a published AED 8,400/month retainer + government fees passed through at cost — a 40% gross saving that funded their next 8 hires.
