UAE Commercial Companies Law Enables Internal Corporate Re-Domiciliation
ABS Partners analyzed Article 15 bis of the UAE Commercial Companies Law, amended under Federal Decree Law No. 20 of 2025, which establishes a framework for internal corporate re-domiciliation. Companies can transfer between Emirates, Free Zones, and Mainland jurisdictions without losing their legal identity. The statutory procedure prevents the need for company liquidation and maintains existing contracts and banking continuity.
