Abhinav Singh
Abhinav leads StrataLink's UAE company formation practice with a focus on the India-to-UAE corridor. With over 10 years of experience across operations, business strategy, and growth, he has guided hundreds of founders through UAE free zone setup, business banking, visa applications, and FEMA/ODI compliance.
He operates between Dubai and Bengaluru, which means clients in India get support in their time zone and language. Most of his work involves founders who need more than a trade licence — they need someone who understands both the UAE side and the Indian regulatory side simultaneously.
