Starting a Computer And CCTV Sales Business in Dubai

Computer And CCTV Sales involves the sale and distribution of computers and Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) systems. This business activity focuses on offering a variety of computers, including desktops, laptops, servers, and peripherals, along with CCTV systems comprising cameras, video recorders, monitors, and related equipment.

The business activities that fall under Computer And CCTV Sales are:

Security Systems & Equipment Trading (4773.c6)

This involves the buying, selling, and distribution of security systems and equipment like alarm systems, access control systems, surveillance cameras, and intercoms. The main goal is to provide customers with the necessary tools to enhance security and safety. This business activity falls under Computer And CCTV Sales because it is closely related to the sale and distribution of CCTV systems. CCTV systems are a crucial part of security systems and often incorporate computer-based components like cameras and video recorders. 

  • Third-party Approval: No third-party approvals are required for this business activity.
  • Anti-Money Laundering Compliance: Business activity 4773.c6 is exempt from this requirement.

Wholesale of computers, computer peripheral equipment and software (4651.00)

This covers the wholesale distribution of computers, peripherals, and software products to retailers, businesses, and organizations. Products include desktops, laptops, servers, monitors, keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, storage devices, networking equipment, and software applications. Businesses can operate through physical stores, online platforms, or even combine both approaches, leveraging Remote Business Setup services to launch efficiently.

This business activity falls under the broader category of "Computer And CCTV Sales" because it involves the wholesale distribution of computer-related products. While Computer And CCTV Sales encompasses the sale of both computers and CCTV systems, the specific focus of this activity is on the wholesale aspect.

However, it's important to note that this class excludes the wholesale of electronic parts, office machinery and equipment (excluding computers and peripheral equipment), and computer-controlled machinery, as these items fall into separate categories and have distinct business activities associated with them.
