MOA & AOA Drafting Coordination — Clear, Practical, Non-Legal Support
Coordination services to prepare and align your Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Articles of Association (AOA) drafts with company structure and licensing requirements. Suitable for mainland and free zone setups, branch additions and license amendments across the UAE.
Overview
AL SAHRAA coordinates the practical drafting steps for MOA and AOA documents, ensuring drafts reflect your shareholding, management structure and permitted activities. We focus on accuracy, readability and alignment with licensing requirements without providing legal advice. Our team liaises with founders, local partners and government portals to gather inputs, consolidate clauses and produce ready-to-review drafts that you can present to lawyers or regulators. We also highlight common points for legal review to streamline the formal legal checking stage. We support mainland and free zone requirements, branch or additional license cases, and amendments such as changes in activities, partners or company name. Turnaround and coordination options are tailored to the complexity of your corporate structure.

Frequently asked questions
What does non-legal MOA/AOA drafting coordination include?
We compile company facts, prepare readable MOA/AOA drafts, align clauses with licensing requirements and coordinate inputs from stakeholders. We do not provide legal advice or represent you in court.
Will you file the MOA/AOA with authorities?
We prepare and coordinate drafts and provide submission checklists. Actual filing or legal registration is handled by you, your legal advisor, or can be arranged separately if you engage our licensing services.
How long does the coordination process take?
Typical coordination for straightforward companies takes several business days; complex structures or extensive stakeholder review can extend the timeline. We provide an estimated timeline after the initial intake.
Do you handle both mainland and free zone document formats?
Yes. We are experienced in drafting formats and clause considerations relevant to mainland and various free zone requirements across the UAE.
Should I still consult a lawyer after receiving your draft?
Yes. Our service is non-legal: we recommend a qualified lawyer review to ensure legal compliance, notarisation, and any jurisdiction-specific requirements are met.
