Other questions

What is ExpandUs Global?

ExpandUs Global helps companies choose their next market and then open there: company setup, licences, banking, visas, hiring, office and first customers, through one team and vetted local partners.

Who is it for?

Existing businesses, mostly small and mid-size, that are considering one or more new countries and want an independent comparison before committing money.

Are you independent?

Yes. We compare countries on the same rules for everyone, partners never set our scores, and we’ll tell you if a market or a new company isn’t the right move.

Where are you based?

ExpandUs Global L.L.C-FZ is based at Meydan Grandstand, Dubai, UAE. We work with customers from any country.

What is a free Snapshot?

A free comparison of the markets that fit your business, showing your best three rated across 15 areas, with a recommended market, what it means for you coming from your home country, and a suggested route in.

Is it really free?

Yes. The Snapshot, the consultation and the detailed report that follows are all free, with no obligation.

How long does it take?

The form takes about 5 minutes. Your Snapshot usually arrives by email within one working day.

What do I need to provide?

Your business, what you sell, where you’re based, your goals and any markets you have in mind. No documents and no account needed.

Can I choose which countries are assessed?

Yes. Name the markets you’re considering, or choose “Help me choose” and we’ll compare the markets that best fit your business.

What happens on the first call?

Your first call is a free consultation. We go through your Snapshot together, learn more about your business, and agree the markets and questions your detailed report and proposal will cover.

What is the detailed report?

In-depth research on the markets you agree on the call: setup routes, ownership, costs, timelines and risks, each fact with its source. It comes with one proposal for the support you need.

When do I get the detailed report?

After your consultation, once the research is complete. We’ll email you when it’s ready, and you can book a call to go through it.

What happens on the second call?

A second call is optional. If you’d like one, we go through your report and proposal together and agree next steps.

Can I reschedule a call?

Yes. Use the link in your booking email to choose a new time or cancel.

Do you use AI?

Yes. AI helps us research and organise information from official and named sources. Each finding shows where it comes from and when it was checked, and our team is on hand to go through anything with you on your call.

How accurate are the costs?

They’re estimates based on official sources and named market data, each labelled and dated. Some costs can’t be known in advance, and we list them clearly rather than guess.

Is the report legal or tax advice?

No. It’s general information to help you plan. For legal and tax decisions, we introduce you to qualified professionals in each country.

Is the chat assistant a person?

No, it’s an AI assistant. It answers only from approved information, and you can ask for a person at any time.

Which countries do you cover?

Almost every country in the world. Tell us the markets you’re considering and your free Snapshot assesses them. A small number of countries under international sanctions can’t be supported.

Can you help me set up a company abroad?

Yes. We coordinate everything with vetted local partners, from licences and banking to visas and hiring, as one tailored proposal agreed with you before any work begins.

What does setup cost?

It depends on the country, the route and your team. Your detailed report sets out first-year costs with their sources, and our proposal prices our support before you commit.

What is the “second opinion on your setup quote”?

If you already have a setup quote from another provider, send it to us and our team will tell you what’s missing, unclear or unusual. It’s free.

Do you work with local partners?

Yes. We work with vetted local partners for services that need a local licence or presence, and we stay your single point of contact.

Can you help with my home country’s requirements too?

Yes. Your Snapshot shows what changes because of where you’re based (tax treaty, dividends, social security, documents), and we connect you with qualified advisers where needed.

What do you do with my data?

We use it to prepare your Snapshot and report and to contact you about them. Marketing messages are only sent if you opt in.

Can I get my data deleted?

Yes. Ask through the privacy request link or email hello@expandusglobal.com, and we’ll handle it under our privacy notice.

Will my report be shared with anyone?

No. Your report is private to you. We share details with a partner only when you ask us to help with setup.

How do I talk to a person?

Ask in the chat, book a free consultation from your Snapshot, or email hello@expandusglobal.com.
