Letterhead is one of the most used legal stationery used in any business. It is of utmost importance for letterhead to have all necessary details whether it is being sent to a client, an associate, or government depts. Do you know what are the necessary details all company letterheads need to include by UAE law? Let’s get into details in this article.
The 5 necessary details all company letterheads need to include by UAE law are:
- Registered Company Name
- Trade License Number
- Company Address
- Contact Information
- VAT Number
1. Registered Company Name
What is any legal document without a proper company name? It’s vital to have the officially registered company name without any spelling mistakes printed on the letterhead in legible font size. The company name is the face of your company and make sure to have that uniform in all your marketing and official stationery.
2. Trade License Number
TRN is a unique number that’s assigned to each business. It’s used to identify your company in official records and documents. In the UAE, your company registration number is issued by the Department of Economic Development (DED). You can find it on your trade license. This also should be added to your letterheads.
3. Company Address
Every business needs to give a physical address during the registration process to add to the documents. This is usually your headquarters, office, or the place where you can receive any legal notice.
4. Contact Information
It’s important to add all relevant contact details at which people can reach out to you right below your company name on the letterheads. These details can be your phone number, mobile number, email address, and website URL. You might also want to include your social media handles if you’re active on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedIn depending on the nature of your business.
5. VAT Number
Adding Value Added Tax (VAT) is not necessary to be added on letterheads. However, it is recommended so that people can see that you’re a legitimate company and that you’re complying with the law.
Since there is no official letterhead format in UAE, different licensing authorities advise on different details. It’s always recommended to check with your licensing authority for more details.
