UAE Regulations/Compliance

Understanding Partner and Shareholder Exit Requirements in the UAE

Exiting a partnership or shareholding in the UAE is governed by various regulations, including Federal Law No. 2 of 2015 on Commercial Companies and the UAE Civil Code. Key considerations include:

  • Share Transfer Restrictions: Partners wishing to transfer their shares must notify other partners, who have the right of first refusal within 30 days of notification.
  • Court Intervention: In cases where partners cannot reach an agreement, the exiting partner may apply to the court for authorization to retire from the partnership, provided there are adequate reasons for the request.
  • Valuation of Shares: The value of the exiting partner’s shares is determined based on the company’s assets at the date of filing the case in court.
  • Visa and Labor Considerations: Exiting partners must cancel their residency visas and settle any labor-related obligations.

We ensure that all Lifestyle & Legal Support comply with UAE laws and provide peace of mind.
