Thanks for your query.
The United Arab Emirates, simply called the Emirates is a federal absolute monarchy sovereign state. The country is a federation of seven emirates. They are Abu Dhabi (which serves as the capital), Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah and Umm al-Quwain.
Although most of the processes for import and export are similar, each emirate may have its own rules and regulations to import to respective emirate and export from such province.
Licensing is important to allow you to be an importer/exporter. It includes having a valid trade license issued by a UAE license issuing authority and being registered with the customs department. Trade licenses should obtain from the economic department from the respective Emirates. United Arab Emirates Federal Customs Authority (FCA) is the official customs authority of Emirates.
You can also get a certain certificate that ensures the features and quality of the products according to the rules established by the Islamic council. The most common example of such certifications is Halal certification.
For more information, you can visit the website of foreign trade ministry of your province or contact the relevant authority.
Thanks and regards,
