The Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry has announced that it will waive late membership fees in an effort to reduce the cost of doing business in Dubai and enhance the competitiveness of the emirate’s private sector.
The move falls in line with the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, which were announced earlier this year and aim to stimulate economic growth in Dubai.
Hamad Buamim, President and CEO of Dubai Chamber, explained that the fee waiver reflects the chamber’s strong commitment to protecting the interests of Dubai’s business community and supporting its growth and development.
The announcement comes after Dubai Chamber unveiled two major initiatives in recent months to support Dubai’s new economic stimulus plans in line with the directives of HH Sheikh Mohammed. Among the new initiatives are plans to coordinate with other government entities to review services and fees.
