Intellectual Property

A company in Dubai is ideal both as an active company and as an intellectual property holding company for holding, managing and utilizing brands, patents and rights in a tax-neutral manner and for the settlement of  license revenues.

By transferring copyright and trademarks to a company in Dubai you not only benefit from internationally recognized and worldwide trademark and patent protection, but also from the complete tax exemption on income from exploitation, sale or licensing.

Dubai complies with a series of international conventions and treaties put in place to protect intellectual property rights. Issues concerning intellectual property rights and privacy are taken very seriously in Dubai. As a result, Dubai has entered several international treaties for the protection of intellectual property and has become a member of following organizations, among others:

• World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)
• WIPO Copyright Treaty
• World Trade Organization (WTO)
• Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property
• Rome Convention for the Protection of Performers, Producers of Phonograms and Broadcasting Organizations
