What information and documents do I need to be a director of an ADGM company?
Updated over 2 years ago

We need the following information and documents for an individual being appointed as a Director of an ADGM company:

  • Passport copy (if the individual has a passport from another country (nor or previously) we will need copies of both. The passport copy should include the signature page as well as the photo page if they are separate. For Indian nationals, the copy must include the family page and for UAE Nationals, it needs to include the UID sticker.)

  • Residential address and current dated (Current dated means that it is dated within the last 2 months) proof of address (typically a utility bill)

  • Residence Visa / National ID Card (if applicable)

  • Emirates ID Card (if applicable)

  • Occupation details and CV

  • Contact details including phone number and email address

  • PEP declaration (if applicable)

In addition to the personal information, the Director will need to sign two documents:

  1. Consent to Act: to confirm their consent to be appointed as a director. This is important as being a Director means that you owe duties to the Company

  2. Fit & Proper Form: to confirm that you are fit & proper to hold the position of a Director and have not been convicted of a crime or banned from being a Director
