Hi, 

Based on the information provided, a transfer or change of the trade license to a branch located in the same emirate may be possible, however, the exact procedure depends on whether the company is mainland or free zone, as the criteria and requirements vary accordingly.


In addition, any such change is subject to approval from the relevant licensing authority and the submission of updated tenancy/Ejari documents for the new branch location.


To advise you accurately, we would need further information on the company’s legal status and current licensing structure.

Regards,
