Software & App Development Company for Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the UAE

A focused MVP typically takes 3 to 6 months. A larger platform, for example a delivery or marketplace app with customer, driver and admin apps, can take 9 to 12 months or more. We give a realistic timeline after discovery.

Usually, yes. An India-based team typically costs less than a Dubai agency or an in-house team with UAE salaries and visas, can start within weeks, and works only 1.5 hours ahead of the UAE. It works best when you stay closely involved, which is why we run two-week sprints with a demo every sprint.

For private-sector projects, UAE businesses commonly contract directly with overseas software companies. Government tenders and some free-zone procurement have their own registration rules, so we check the position for your project before proposing.

Yes. In the UAE, e-invoices are exchanged through Ministry of Finance accredited service providers rather than sent directly from your own system. Kawach is not an ASP: we connect your ERP, accounting or billing software to the provider you appoint and make sure your invoice data is complete.

Generally yes. Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 on the use of ICT in health fields requires health data to be stored and processed inside the UAE unless an exception applies, and DHA and DoH add their own requirements. We plan UAE-region hosting for healthcare projects from the start.

Yes. We integrate gateways and wallets used in the UAE, such as Network International, Checkout.com, Telr, Apple Pay, Tabby and Tamara, once your merchant account is set up. UAE Pass can be added after your organisation completes its official onboarding.

Usually under the reverse-charge mechanism: a VAT-registered UAE business that buys services from an overseas supplier generally accounts for the 5% VAT itself. Your tax advisor confirms the treatment for your company.

Ask for documented case studies, check how Arabic right-to-left layouts are designed and tested, confirm in writing that you will own the source code, agree a meeting rhythm that fits your working week, and expect a discovery phase before a fixed quote. The same checks apply whether the company is in Dubai or overseas.

Yes. We sign an NDA before any detailed project discussion.

You do. Under our standard terms, ownership of custom source code, designs and related work product transfers to you on full payment.

Fixed price suits a clearly defined scope, time and materials suits projects that will evolve, and a dedicated team suits ongoing product work where developers work only on your roadmap. We help you choose after discovery.

Working hours across the Gulf are usually shorter during Ramadan, so reviews and approvals can take longer. We plan around it by bringing launches forward or scheduling them after Eid, and by agreeing review windows that suit your Ramadan hours.

Every project includes 30 days of post-launch support for fixes. After that, maintenance, monitoring and new features continue on a retainer sized to your needs.

Our published case studies are from clients in other markets, in sectors that matter in the Gulf such as logistics, financial services, real estate and hospitality. We walk you through relevant examples during discovery.
