About us

Your transition to Dubai, handled by people who've done it

Dubai Transition Consultants helps individuals, families and business owners relocate to, expand into, or gradually transition to Dubai from Ireland, without the guesswork.

Who we are

DTC is a cross-border consultancy with one job: getting people to Dubai properly, the home-country exit planned in the right order, the right company structure, visas, banking and a soft landing for families.

The clue's in the name, we're transition consultants, not relocation agents. You don't have to uproot everything at once: a full move, an expansion into the region, or a gradual shift all count, and we go at your pace. We're on the ground in the UAE with a licensed team, and for the Irish tax side we work alongside Irish-qualified advisers, because that's who should be advising on Irish tax.

And the Irish connection isn't marketing: Alan, our founder, holds an Irish passport. The three-year tail, the flight home for a wedding, the GAA club at the weekend, these aren't abstractions to us.

What makes us different

  • End to end. Structure, visas, banking, relocation and the move plan under one roof, not five different firms.
  • Honest first. If a different route is right for you, we'll say so. No hard sell.
  • Both sides understood. The Irish exit and the UAE setup are one project, not two, and we plan them together, with Irish-qualified advisers where your case needs them.
  • Right the first time. The departure-year position and the company structure are both costly to get wrong, so we start from your situation.
