Golden Visa Holder
Read full story
Zubair Sarookh, a well-known content creator in Dubai, launched his social media agency three years ago. But behind the scenes, his company setup wasn’t working for him. After being misadvised by a previous consultant, he ended up with a jurisdiction that didn’t match his business model and was paying nearly 3x more than he should’ve.
The turning point
One conversation with BizHub revealed the problem. We showed Zubair how to restructure his setup, saving him thousands while opening more doors for his agency.
What BizHub did
- Closed the costly setup – Helped Zubair liquidate his old company that was draining his resources.
- Set up smart in Ajman Freezone – A cost-effective, flexible jurisdiction perfect for digital businesses.
- Enabled cross-border operations – His new license supports both UAE-wide and global work.
- Combined licenses for scale – Registered him with dual activities: social media agency + eCommerce.
- Sorted out banking and payments – Got him the right corporate account and a reliable payment gateway.
- Put him on track for a Golden Visa – Structured everything to meet eligibility and fast-track the process.
The result
Zubair now runs a streamlined business that matches his growth ambitions. It accepts payments locally and internationally and operates under a future-ready structure without overspending.
Shara Williams Laurie
Hair Stylist & Founder — USA → UAE
Home Service & Virtual Beauty Consulting
Read full story
Shara Williams Laurie, a seasoned hair stylist from Alabama, had already made waves in the U.S. beauty space, with a growing following on Instagram and TikTok thanks to her mastery of braids and weaves. But as her audience grew, so did her vision. She wanted to bring her skills to a market hungry for her expertise, while also stepping into a new lifestyle.
She saw Dubai as the perfect fit. A cultural melting pot. A fresh market. A place where Black haircare services were in demand and underrepresented.
The turning point
Shara knew she didn’t need a storefront. Her business was mobile, digital, and global. But navigating licenses, visa rules, and jurisdictions from abroad? That’s where things got tricky until BizHub stepped in.
What BizHub did
- Formed her company in 2 hours – Set up a Freezone entity in Sharjah Publishing City tailored for virtual services
- Guided visa approval – Helped her secure an Investor Visa in just 25 days
- Kept it lean and scalable – No office needed, just a compliant structure with full operational freedom
- Made the process frictionless – Managed all filings, approvals, and setup remotely
The result
Shara now runs The Shara Williams Collection from Dubai, serving clients on-site and online. She has full legal status, a brand-new audience, and a clean launch into the UAE beauty space with no office overhead or wasted time.
Markus & Jurgen Paal
Real Estate Advisors — Germany → UAE
UAE Residency Holders
Read full story
Born and raised in Ostfildern, Germany, Markus and his brother Jurgen were no strangers to high taxes and complex financial rules. Despite building a successful real estate advisory business, a large chunk of their hard-earned income was being taxed away, leaving them looking for a better alternative.
They didn’t just want to move. They wanted to restructure their lives and their business in a tax-efficient, legally sound way.
The turning point
They researched multiple countries for residency options but found most were either too complex or not business-friendly until they came across Dubai. That’s when BizHub stepped in to show them how to turn that plan into reality.
What BizHub did
- Advised on best-fit jurisdiction – Helped them pick a cost-effective setup that matched their needs
- Registered a Freezone company – Provided a clean structure to obtain UAE residency
- Handled the full visa process – Guided both brothers through residency steps seamlessly
- Opened doors for banking – Ensured they could access UAE banking for personal and business use
- Enabled long-term relocation – Positioned them to live, operate, and grow in a tax-friendly environment
The result
Markus and Jurgen now live in Dubai and are under UAE residency. Their business operates without heavy tax burdens, their finances are more flexible, and their structure supports future growth. With BizHub, they found not just a relocation, but a full financial reset.
James Webb
Content Creator - Australia
Golden Visa Holder
Read full story
James Webb, better known as JWebby Can Eat, is Australia’s #1 competitive eater and a viral social media personality. With multiple income streams from merch and brand deals to content monetization and social media consulting, James was thriving online but was overwhelmed financially.
Why? Because Australia’s tax system was eating into his profits, corporate, personal, and even on his assets. It was time for a smarter structure.
The turning point
James wanted freedom: to travel, create, and scale his business without worrying about how much the government would take. That meant moving to a tax-friendly base—somewhere like Dubai. But the process wasn’t exactly plug-and-play.
What BizHub did
- Mapped a virtual-first setup – No office required, just a clean Freezone structure
- Registered his business fast – Enabled legal operations from anywhere in the world
- Guided him to UAE residency – Set him up with a visa that unlocked banking, travel, and stability
- Supported cross-border activity – Helped him manage multiple ventures (merch, consulting, creator brand)
- Fast-tracked his Golden Visa eligibility – Structured his setup to meet criteria and future-proof his stay
The result
James now runs a global business from his UAE base, with less tax, more flexibility, and zero red tape. Whether he’s consulting, shipping merch, or smashing food records, his backend is sorted. BizHub made the switch seamless.
