2. Applicant Information
- For individuals:
- Copy of the applicant’s passport.
- UAE residency visa (if applicable).
- For companies:
- Trade license of the company.
- Proof of legal existence (e.g., Certificate of Incorporation).
3. Power of Attorney (if applicable)
- If an agent or law firm is filing on your behalf, a notarized Power of Attorney is required.
4. Contact Information
- Applicant’s name, address, email, and phone number.
5. Priority Document (if applicable)
- If claiming priority based on an earlier foreign application, provide a certified copy of the original application.
6. Arabic Translation of Documents

Tips for a Successful Application:
