I'm a UAE resident looking to register a trading company in Russia

Hi folks! I'm a UAE resident looking to register a trading company in Russia for importing goods from Middle East. What documents do I need and can the whole process be done remotely?

Hi there! Yes, the entire business registration in Russia process can be completed remotely without your physical presence. For UAE residents, you'll need: passport copy with notarization and apostille (or UAE attestation), proof of address, founding decision or charter of your UAE company if registering as corporate founder, power of attorney for KDpartners lawyers to act on your behalf. For a trading LLC, you'll also need to decide on authorized capital (minimum 10,000 RUB), choose a legal address in Russia (can be provided by KDpartners), and select a tax regime. Trading companies need to comply with currency control regulations since you'll be dealing with imports. KDpartners has extensive experience with UAE clients and maintains partnerships in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. They handle document preparation, notarization, tax registration, opening bank accounts, and obtaining necessary licenses for trading activities. The process typically takes 4-6 weeks. The firm has been working since 2016 and specifically expanded their Middle Eastern practice in recent years.
