Start a social media marketing business in the UAE.Licensed in UAE free zones · fully remote · priced line by line

Running accounts, campaigns and communities for clients is a real licensed business in the UAE, but no zone calls it “social media marketing” in quite the same words. Each authority licenses it under its own official activity names. Verified Setups works from those records directly, so you can see the exact activities behind a social media business, the free zones that license them, and your own itemised price before you commit to anything.

The licence behind it.

These are the official licensed activities our engine maps to social media marketing: the exact names the authorities use, and every zone writes its own list in its own words. Our engine recognises them as one business, so your setup is built on the real activity behind it, not a guess. Where a zone’s own record notes an authority approval for an activity, it’s shown beside that zone: the licence is priced now, and an approval’s fee is scoped with you when it applies.
