If you plan to open a warehouse in the emirate of Dubai, you must obtain Trakhees’ approval. Trakhees is the government body responsible for environmental health and safety regulations in Dubai, overseeing development and construction in the city’s free zones. The Trakheese regulations and guidelines govern well-known free zones like DWC (Dubai World Central) and JUMEIRAH LETS (JLT). Obtaining the necessary approval is crucial when setting up a warehouse in these areas.
Documents Required for Trakhees Approval:
- Complete the Trakhees warehouse application form
- provide a copy of the approved building permit
- submit a site plan indicating the warehouse’s location
- include architectural drawings
- provide structural engineering drawings
- submit fire safety plans, and pay the Trakhees Approval Fee.
The Trakhees approval process typically takes around 4-6 weeks to complete. Once Trakhees approves your application, they will issue your Trakhees warehouse Approval Certificate, and you must visibly display the certificate in the warehouse at all times.
Operating a warehouse in Dubai comes with certain limitations. For example, you must locate the warehouse in an industrial zone and employ qualified staff. It is crucial to consult with a structural engineer to ensure the safety and compliance of your warehouse with all relevant regulations.
Obtaining Trakhees Approval in advance is advisable if you plan to open a warehouse in Dubai, as it will help ensure that your warehouse is completed safely and complies with all relevant regulations.
