Dubai gave me a life. I promised myself I'd give something back.

by Mahdi Salmanzade, Software Developer, Dubai 📧 [e-mail] · 📅 April 2026

⚠️ Knowledge Date: April 2026

Business rules in the UAE (corporate tax, visas, free zone pricing, accelerator cycles, API migrations) change frequently. Always verify with the official source before making real decisions. Every biz/* tool returns a knowledge_date field with its own per-domain freshness stamp, and you can call get_knowledge_status() at any time to see which domains were verified when.

🌟 What is this?

MCP-Dubai is a Model Context Protocol server that gives AI agents a single, well-typed interface to two distinct kinds of knowledge about Dubai and the UAE:

1. Public Dubai and UAE government data, like prayer times, exchange rates, school ratings, real estate transactions, transport networks, and more.
2. Curated business setup knowledge that no other MCP server has, like which free zone to choose for a SaaS startup, which visa to apply for as a freelance developer, how to estimate corporate tax under the QFZP rules, the full Hague-not-an-option attestation chain, the 11 most common founder mistakes, and a 14-bank matrix with DUL fast-track eligibility.

Drop it into Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, or any MCP-compatible client and your AI assistant can answer questions like "what time is Fajr tomorrow in Dubai Marina?" or "where should I set up my SaaS company in Dubai with a 25K AED budget?" with grounded, source-cited answers instead of SEO spam.

💡 Why MCP-Dubai exists

Dubai's public data lives across at least a dozen platforms (api.dubaipulse.gov.ae, opendata.fcsc.gov.ae, bayanat.ae, centralbank.ae, aladhan.com, web.khda.gov.ae, aviationweather.gov, and more) each with its own auth, format, and rate limits. Most agencies do not expose self-serve APIs. The few that do are gated behind email-issued OAuth credentials or paywalled at AED 31,500/year per product.

On top of that, founders coming to Dubai face the same questions over and over: which license, which visa, which bank, how much, how long. The web answers are SEO-spam from agency setup firms.

MCP-Dubai is the honest, code-first answer.

• Built around 9 anonymous APIs that work today (Al-Adhan, Quran Cloud, FCSC CKAN, CBUAE Umbraco, KHDA XLSX, aviationweather.gov, OSM Overpass, WAQI air quality, curated UAE holidays).
• Layered with 6 curated business knowledge domains that compress 8,600+ lines of source-cited research into structured tools.
• Uses the same KnowledgeMetadata envelope on every business response so the LLM (and you) can always see when each domain was last verified.
• Inspired by mcp-brasil. Aligned with Dubai Data Law (Law 26 of 2015). Run as a community contribution.

🧰 Tool Catalogue

51 tools across 15 features. All Tier 0 features ship today and work without any credentials. Tier 2 business knowledge tools are also live. Tier 1 (Dubai Pulse OAuth) features are scaffolded and ship after credentials are obtained. Use recommend_tools(query) to find the right tool for any natural-language question.

✅ Tier 0: anonymous APIs (no auth, ship today)

Feature	Tools	What it does
al_adhan	prayer_times_for, prayer_times_calendar, qibla_direction, hijri_to_gregorian, gregorian_to_hijri	Prayer times for any UAE city or coords, Qibla compass bearing, Hijri/Gregorian conversion. Method 8 (Gulf Region) is the default; method 16 (Dubai experimental) matches Dubai mosque announcements.
quran_cloud	quran_surah, quran_ayah, quran_juz, quran_search	Full Quran text and translations. Multiple editions (Arabic Uthmani, Sahih International English, Urdu, etc.).
cbuae	cbuae_exchange_rates, cbuae_base_rate	Central Bank of UAE exchange rates against AED for ~75 currencies (today or historical), plus the current CBUAE base rate. Sourced from the undocumented Umbraco endpoints, no auth.
fcsc_ckan	fcsc_search_dataset, fcsc_get_dataset, fcsc_list_organizations, fca_trade_stats	Anonymous read against the UAE federal open data CKAN portal. Includes a convenience wrapper for Federal Customs Authority trade statistics (the easiest no-auth path for UAE trade data).
khda	khda_search_school, khda_list_curricula, khda_list_areas	Search Dubai private schools by name, area, curriculum, KHDA inspection rating, or fee ceiling. Backed by a curated snapshot of well-known schools; full XLSX refresh script in roadmap.
aviation_weather	weather_uae_icao, weather_uae_all	METAR (current observation) and TAF (forecast) for the 6 UAE international airports (OMDB Dubai International, OMDW Al Maktoum, OMSJ Sharjah, OMAA Abu Dhabi, OMAL Al Ain, OMRK RAK). The standard substitute for the missing NCM public API.
air_quality	air_quality_dubai, air_quality_by_coords, air_quality_dubai_stations	Real-time air quality (AQI, PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, CO, O3) for Dubai stations via WAQI/AQICN. Requires a free token from aqicn.org. Uses the graceful degradation pattern: returns a structured help error if the token is missing.
osm_overpass	osm_search_poi, osm_list_categories	Find OpenStreetMap POIs near a Dubai location: restaurants, pharmacies, mosques, ATMs, metro stations, malls, parking, etc. 22 curated categories.
holidays	uae_holidays, uae_next_holiday, is_uae_holiday	UAE federal public holidays. Lunar holidays (Eid Al Fitr, Eid Al Adha, Hijri New Year, Mawlid, Arafat Day) are flagged as provisional until officially announced by MoHRE.

💼 Tier 2: curated business knowledge (no external API, ship today)

Feature	Tools	What it does
setup_advisor	setup_advisor	The headline tool. Recommends mainland vs free zone vs offshore for a Dubai business setup. Cross-references curated free zones, visas, banks, and tax rules. Gives jurisdiction, candidate free zones, reasoning, warnings, cost range, timeline, and next steps. Surfaces the SaaS-is-not-QFZP-Qualifying warning automatically.
free_zones	list_free_zones, free_zone_details, compare_free_zones, list_offshore	All 12 major Dubai free zones (DMCC, DIFC Innovation, JAFZA, DAFZA, IFZA, Meydan, Dubai South, DSO/Dtec, TECOM, DHCC, DPC/DSC, DIFC full FS) with cost, office options, visa quota, and bank acceptance reputation. Plus JAFZA Offshore and RAK ICC. Renewal cost myth is corrected here: it is NOT 20-30% higher than setup.
visas	list_visa_types, visa_details, visa_recommend, golden_visa_check	All 13 UAE visa types. Green Visa is correctly split into the AED 15K/month skilled employee track and the AED 360K/24-month freelancer track. Golden Visa specialized talent salary tightened to AED 30,000 basic monthly verified over 24 months (early 2026 update).
banking	list_banks, bank_details, bank_recommendation, dul_eligibility	14-bank matrix (Wio, Mashreq NEOBiz, Zand, ruya, Emirates NBD, RAKBANK, ADCB, FAB, CBD, ADIB, HSBC, StanChart, Citi, Liv) on onboarding speed, minimum balance, and crypto stance. Plus DUL (Dubai Unified Licence) fast-track eligibility check listing the 7 participating banks and 3 participating free zones.
founder_essentials	attestation_guide, pro_services_estimate, legal_translation_estimate, chamber_of_commerce_info, setup_timeline_estimate, common_founder_mistakes	The boring stuff that breaks setups. Full 5-step UAE legalization chain (UAE is NOT a Hague Apostille member, despite what some sources claim), PRO service cost estimator, MOJ legal translation calculator, Dubai Chamber of Commerce membership and CoO fees, realistic 1-to-16-week banking timelines, and the 11 most common founder mistakes with impact and fix for each.
tax_compliance	corporate_tax_estimate, vat_filing_calendar, qfzp_check, esr_status	UAE Corporate Tax (Federal Decree-Law 47 of 2022, 9% above AED 375,000), VAT (5%), QFZP (Qualifying Free Zone Person under Ministerial Decision 229 of 2025, with the explicit SaaS-not-qualifying warning), and ESR status (DEAD for periods after Dec 2022 per Cabinet Resolution 98 of 2024).

🧠 Tier 3: meta-tools

Tool	What it does
recommend_tools(query, top_k=5)	BM25-powered tool discovery. Pass a natural-language query, get a ranked list of the most relevant tools so the LLM does not have to scan all 51 at once.
list_features()	List every registered feature with its tier, auth requirement, and tool count.
get_knowledge_status()	Read the freshness registry. Returns every registered business knowledge domain with its knowledge_date, volatility, verify_at URL, and disclaimer.

🔐 Tier 1: Dubai Pulse OAuth (planned)

The auth scaffolding is in place (graceful credential degradation, token caching, env-overridable base URL for the data.dubai migration). The actual feature wrappers ship once the maintainer obtains Dubai Pulse credentials. Planned: dld (real estate), rta (transport + GTFS), dha (health facilities), dewa, dtcm, det (business activities), dm_food, dm_permits, dubai_customs, dubai_airports (FIDS).

Dubai Pulse Gateway	🔐 OAuth (planned)	DLD, RTA, DHA, DEWA, DET, DTCM, DM, Dubai Airports	Tier 1 (Phase 4)
DLD API Gateway	💰 Paid (~AED 31,500/yr per product)	Ejari, Mollak, Trakheesi, Rental Index	Not built (we use Dubai Pulse open data instead)

Things we will NOT build (full list in DISCLAIMER.md): Salik account/balance/trips (private app), NABIDH clinical data (vendor-only PHI), DMCC public-search scraping (ToS-banned), NCM weather wrapper (no public API), DM zoning/parcels (request-only paid), CBUAE Open Finance regulated TPP framework. We also explicitly do not promise A-to-F food grades from the open feed (the consumer app shows them but the open dataset schema is unconfirmed).

Upstream Status

Some government endpoints have deployed bot protection (Cloudflare) since v0.1.0 released. These tools return a structured success: false with error.status of upstream_blocked instead of crashing. The rest of the package is unaffected.

Tool	Endpoint	Status as of 2026-04-13
cbuae_exchange_rates	centralbank.ae Exchange endpoint	✅ Working (scraper updated in v0.1.2 for the new Arabic three-cell DOM)
cbuae_base_rate	centralbank.ae InterestRate endpoint	🔶 Cloudflare-blocked
fcsc_search_dataset	opendata.fcsc.gov.ae CKAN	🔶 Cloudflare-blocked
fcsc_get_dataset	opendata.fcsc.gov.ae CKAN	🔶 Cloudflare-blocked
fcsc_list_organizations	opendata.fcsc.gov.ae CKAN	🔶 Cloudflare-blocked
fca_trade_stats	opendata.fcsc.gov.ae CKAN	🔶 Cloudflare-blocked (delegates to fcsc_search_dataset)

cbuae_exchange_rates rows now include currency (English), currency_ar (Arabic as returned by CBUAE), iso_code (ISO 4217), and rate_aed. Unknown currencies pass through with iso_code: null and currency: null so new CBUAE entries are never silently dropped.

Clients should check result["success"] and read result["error"]["status"] / result["error"]["reason"] for a user-facing message. We track these endpoints and will restore data access when the upstream blocks are lifted or alternative sources are wired up.

📅 Knowledge Freshness

The hardest thing about a Dubai business-knowledge MCP is that the rules move. Tax thresholds, visa criteria, free zone pricing, and even API base URLs all change inside a single quarter. This project handles that with seven mechanisms:

1. Top-of-file timestamp on every curated JSON file (knowledge_date: 2026-04-13).
2. Per-domain KNOWLEDGE constant in every biz/* module, registered with the shared KnowledgeRegistry at import time.
3. knowledge block on every business tool response with knowledge_date, volatility, verify_at URL, and disclaimer.
4. get_knowledge_status() meta-tool that reads from the registry, so a single update flows through automatically.
5. README badge + ⚠️ callout under the maintainer's note.
6. Volatility tags by domain: 🟢 stable (yearly re-verify), 🟡 medium (quarterly), 🔴 high (quarterly or monthly).
7. Verification queue of open items tracked by maintainers.

Volatility map (current):

Domain	Volatility	Re-verify cadence
setup_advisor, free_zones, visas, tax_compliance	🔴 high	quarterly
banking, founder_essentials	🟡 medium	quarterly
Tier 0 anonymous APIs	🟢 stable	yearly
Dubai Pulse dataset slugs (when wired)	🟡 medium	quarterly (data.dubai migration in progress)
Accelerator cohort dates, event calendar (when shipped)	🔴 high	monthly

Recent rule changes captured (as of 2026-04-13):

• QFZP Qualifying Activities updated by Ministerial Decision 229/2025 (SaaS still excluded).
• CT late-registration penalty waived if first return filed within 7 months (FTA, April 2025).
• Golden Visa specialized talent salary tightened to AED 30,000 basic monthly verified over 24 months (early 2026).
• ESR repealed for periods after 31 December 2022 (Cabinet Resolution 98/2024).
• VARA V2.0 Rulebook compliance deadline 19 June 2025.
• Dubai parking spun out of RTA into Parkin Company PJSC, December 2023, with variable tariffs live since 4 April 2025. Note: "Mawaqif" is Abu Dhabi, not Dubai.
• Ministry of Economy rebranded to Ministry of Economy and Tourism (MOET) in 2025.
• Federal health insurance mandate kicked in January 2025 (UAE-wide).

Conventions every feature follows:

• __init__.py exports a FEATURE_META dict with name, description, tier, requires_auth, source URL.
• tools.py holds pure async functions with no FastMCP imports, so unit tests hit the real logic without going through the MCP wrapping layer.
• server.py defines a FastMCP("feature_name") instance, decorates wrappers, and registers ToolMeta records with the shared discovery on import.
• biz/* features additionally expose a per-domain KNOWLEDGE = KnowledgeMetadata(...) constant and call register_domain_knowledge(domain, KNOWLEDGE) so get_knowledge_status() reflects current freshness automatically.
• data/* features that need OAuth or a free API key use the graceful credential degradation pattern: tools never crash when env vars are missing. They call availability() and return a structured ToolResponse.fail({status, reason, docs}) so the MCP client renders a help message instead of a stack trace. This is what lets python -m mcp_dubai start cleanly on a fresh machine with no env file.
• Curated JSON files use the Pattern 3 envelope: top-level domain, knowledge_date, volatility, verify_at, source_brief_section, disclaimer. The shared loader's extract_knowledge() builds the KnowledgeMetadata directly from these fields, so a single update in a JSON file flows through to every tool that uses it.

💬 Example Queries

Ask your AI assistant any of these. The agent will route to the right tool via recommend_tools and return a grounded answer:

Daily life:

• "What time is Fajr prayer tomorrow in Dubai Marina?"
• "Convert 10 Ramadan 1447 to Gregorian."
• "What's the current AED to USD exchange rate?"
• "Find restaurants within 500m of these coordinates."

• "What's today's air quality in Karama?"

Schools:

• "Find Outstanding rated schools in Jumeirah with British curriculum."
• "Which Indian / CBSE schools are under AED 20,000/year?"

Founder questions (the headline value):

• "Where should I set up my SaaS company in Dubai with a 25K AED budget?"
• "Compare DMCC and IFZA for a 2-visa consultancy."
• "What visa should I get if I'm a freelance developer earning AED 400,000/year?"
• "Estimate my corporate tax if my free zone SaaS makes AED 1.5M revenue."
• "Do I qualify for the Golden Visa with a 32K monthly basic salary?"
• "Open a UAE business bank account fast for a solo founder."
• "Am I eligible for the Dubai Unified Licence fast-track with Emirates NBD and DMCC?"
• "How do I attest my degree certificate from India for use in Dubai?"
• "How much do PRO services cost per year for 3 visas?"

Phase 6: Agent skills	✅ Complete	arabic_writer (bilingual letter templates) + data_analyst (cross-tool plans + Markdown report synthesis with knowledge-freshness footer).
Phase 7: More Tier 1 features	🔐 Blocked on credentials	dha, dewa, det, dtcm, dm_food, dm_permits, dubai_customs, dubai_airports. The dubai_pulse base client and dld + rta examples are ready as the template.
Phase 8: Quarterly knowledge refresh	♻️ Ongoing	Re-verify the 17 curated knowledge domains every quarter, bump knowledge_date in the JSON files. Tax rules and visa thresholds move fastest.

---

🤝 Contributing

We welcome contributions. Priority areas right now:

1. Ship the deferred Tier 2 features (funding, events, parkin, ip_trademark, halal, etc.). They follow the same pattern as the existing 6, just need curated JSON + thin tools/server modules + tests.
2. Wire up Tier 1 Dubai Pulse features once credentials are obtained. Auth and base client are already in _shared/auth.py and the DubaiPulseAuth graceful-degradation contract is the canonical pattern.
3. Refresh business knowledge quarterly. Each curated JSON file has a knowledge_date and verify_at URL. Tax rules, visa thresholds, and free zone pricing change frequently.
4. Improve recommend_tools BM25 quality by tuning tags. Current quirk: in small sub-corpora, BM25 length normalization can favour shorter tools when queries collide on common tokens.
