About Us

Sanctuary is a boutique advisory firm offering advice to individuals and companies based in or moving to the UAE.

Sanctuary was established in 2019 as a boutique advisory firm providing “one-stop-shop” services to individuals and businesses looking to establish their presence in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. In January 2024 Sanctuary joined The Summit Group, a leading independent fiduciary and administrative services group. Find out more: www.summit-group.com

We can help you set up your business here, including assisting with accounting, bookkeeping, and managing UAE corporate taxes. Our team at Sanctuary also has extensive experience with helping our clients obtain visas and tax residency certificates to help them manage their international tax affairs and meet their relevant filing obligations.

Many of our clients are looking for advice on how to own their assets and protect them for the benefit of their family and future generations. We work closely with them to develop ownership structures, including trusts and foundations, to help them meet their objectives, which often include succession planning.

As a result of greater emphasis on good governance, we are also seeing increasing demand for help in setting up family offices, and advice on both the structure and the operation.
