Last year, the Government of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) embarked on a number of historic policy shifts in an effort to entrench the UAE’s position as a leading Middle East economy and to attract foreign investment. In December 2020, the Government published a New Companies Law which introduced significant changes to the existing Law. Notably, providing for 100% foreign ownership of certain companies in the UAE. Prior to this, UAE limited liability companies were required to have at least 51% of their shares wholly-owned by UAE nationals (or a company wholly-owned by a UAE national).

Now it is 6 months on and the Government has further announced changes to the Emirati Nationality Law, paving the way for expatriates in the UAE to obtain UAE citizenship.
