Families relocating to the UAE

Moving a family to the UAE is a decision about residence, structure and capital at once. We help families make the move in a way that keeps all three aligned.

The situation

A new base, with structures to match.

Relocation affects where a family is resident, how its assets are held and which rules apply to them. Each of these questions involves different advisers, and the answers must fit together.

Redwood Heritage is licensed by the Dubai World Trade Centre Authority and based at Sheikh Rashid Tower in Dubai. We coordinate the family’s legal, tax and banking advisers so that residence, structure and capital are planned as one.

Questions we help answer

What families ask us.

Which residency route suits the family?

Options considered alongside the family’s wider plans.

How should existing structures adapt?

A review of holding structures in light of the move.

Where should banking relationships sit?

Banking and custody arranged for the family’s new base.

How does the move affect succession?

Governance and succession plans updated for the new jurisdiction.

An illustrative situation

Illustrative example. Not a client.

A family with a business and investment holdings in Europe plans to move to Dubai. Its lawyers, tax advisers and banks each address part of the move.

We coordinate them into one plan covering residence, the holding structure, banking relationships and the family’s governance.
