If you’re not using Strive, you’re making a mistake.

The idea of setting up a company, moving country and trying to understand the huge amount of information in the process is extremely overwhelming. However, having Strive at my side throughout, made the set up process feel super easy and comfortable. We had everything complete in less than 7 weeks! Pali and the team were great to deal with, communicated well at each stage of the journey and were there to answer all our questions within the scope of company set up as well as a ton of general help about navigating Dubai, the culture and the lifestyle. 100% recommended Strive to anyone looking to take the opportunity that Dubai has to offer.

Time wasters. Not serious business, bunch of #?!$

Complete waste of time avoid these time wasters. First had a booking for 4.30 only to be told they had booked that slot to someone else so rescheduled for 5.30 the next day for a zoom call no answer to watsapp or email wasted my time. Avoid this company at all costs!!!

Hi, Unfortunately, we have tried to contact you, but your name in the review is ambiguous hence it is difficult for us to comment on this specific case.

It seems as though there may have been confusion about the meeting time and call link. Please feel free to get in touch again to rearrange.

For business set up/visas in Dubai - Strive is the one!

Strive handled the entire process of setting up our business in Dubai and the visa processes for our family. I literally couldn't fault them on one thing. The entire process was seamless - they were super quick to respond to our endless questions. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Fantastic advice from Pali today. We went through everything about my business and lifestyle and tried to find an option to suit me. Though I am not quite ready to make "the leap" just yet, the advice was very honest and measured. Very professional service and I will be using Strive in the future when my circumstances change.

I cannot thank Strive Consultancy enough for their outstanding service, especially Pali, who went above and beyond to assist me in my journey to Dubai. Pali's expertise and knowledge were invaluable in helping me navigate the complexities of relocating my family and business to Dubai.

Pali patiently addressed all my questions, providing me with valuable information and advice every step of the way. If you're considering a move to Dubai with your family or planning to relocate your business, Strive Consultancy is the firm to contact. Their dedication and professionalism are commendable, and I highly recommend their services.

Strive - Unbelievable service

I am from the UK and saw so many online companies offering advice about moving to Dubai. I was recommended Strive by a friend of mine. The service was exemplary, they have a large team who talk you through all your needs and give advice.

The process they said they would take care of, they do! Door to door service. I was picked up and dropped off for the services all done and booked in advance all I had to do is turn up.

I would highly recommend the service for anyone moving to UAE.

Well organized!

I got the chance to work with Strive. Cause of short timing on my behave, I real liked the services and quick update how it all went. Dispit the digital and online process, If it might help in the future. It would help if certain practical steps (making photo's), good have been done during a visit/meet up at the Strive office. It give the occasion the meet Strive company and the team. I really would recommend it to my network and even for further services. I really liked the fluent communication. Always helpful, stand by and solution minded. That helped a lot. Well experienced in the field. Even after the mission was accomplished, the relationship after service is still present. That makes the extra star worth.

Strive have been instrumental

We planned to hire a firm for opening a company and bank account in Dubai. Even though Strive were not the cheapest they made up for it with their tireless communication to ensure we were on track with everything. In addition the quality of strategic advice from the founders was excellent and much appreciated.

Topclass Customer Service

I wanted to close my company as my circumstances had changed. Pali presented my case to SPC and came up with the best possible option that made the closure process very smooth. Thanks to Karisma for her persistent follow-up with SPC.

Without any hesitation, I would recommend prospective entrepreneurs who want to set up their own company to reach out to Pali at Strive Consultants.

This was one of the best business setup consultation calls I've ever had. Pali came highly recommended by my friends. Having heard so much about him, I approached the call with certain expectations, knowing that my friends would only suggest a top-notch advisor. However, little did I expect that he would far exceed these expectations. Pali stands out because of his transparency and genuine willingness to help without prioritizing his own gains. For instance, he recommended a solution that his company couldn't execute due to certain limitations and provided me with another company's contact. He could have easily pitched alternative solutions that his company could handle, and while they might have been good, they wouldn't have been the ideal fit. Pali isn't after quick, short-term transactions; he's dedicated to building a foundation for long-term, trustworthy relationships, even if that means foregoing an immediate win. Such integrity is rare these days. If you're in search of a consultant in the Emirates, Pali is your go-to expert for any queries. Thank you.
