IT Companies in United Arab Emirates
Approximately 12,966 real businesses classified under Information and Communication in United Arab Emirates, with officer, shareholder and beneficial ownership records sourced directly from official government registries.
Approximately 12,966 real businesses operate in the Information and Communication sector across United Arab Emirates. Software and telecom companies are the sector most likely to have four holding-company layers before you reach a real person — and it is rarely for tax reasons alone. Staged venture-capital and private-equity investment rounds, plus standard tax-efficient group structuring, both push ownership chains further here than in almost any other sector. The sector covers software publishing, IT services, telecom network operation, broadcasting, and publishing, and beneficial-ownership resolution is disproportionately relevant precisely because of that depth.
77 companies in this sector are indexed on Zavia so far, part of a continually growing dataset.
Beneficial-ownership and registration rules for Information and Communication companies in United Arab Emirates follow the same national framework as every other sector there.

Analysis
What this data actually tells you
No precise, current, primary-sourced GDP share specifically for this NACE section was found; available figures describe the broader, more loosely defined “digital economy,” which likely spans multiple NACE sections.
This content flags that as a genuine data gap rather than presenting a market-research market-size figure as if it were an official GDP share.
Who uses United Arab Emirates information and communication ownership data
The three checks this sector's data is most often run for.
Digital-Economy-Growth-Target Verification
The UAE launched 5G in 2019 (via du and e&), the first in the Arab region and fourth globally; the UAE Digital Economy Strategy, launched April 2022, aims to roughly double the digital economy’s GDP contribution within 10 years, though official communications have cited differing baselines (9.7% versus 12% of non-oil GDP) that this content does not attempt to reconcile arbitrarily. No precise, current, primary-sourced GDP share specifically for the NACE Information and Communication section was found. Counterparties verify current-year figures directly rather than treat broader “digital economy” market-size estimates as an official sector GDP share.
