Discovery call
A short call in the shared window covers the goal, the audience and which languages launch.
Abu Dhabi
Web design Abu Dhabi: bilingual sites for the capital
We build websites for Abu Dhabi companies and organisations, remotely, from Casablanca. Abu Dhabi shares the Dubai clock, three hours ahead of us. The data rules, the Arabic layouts and your IT team’s questions go into the scope before any code is written.
SCROLL
Abu Dhabi, from Casablanca
Why a remote studio works for Abu Dhabi
Web design Abu Dhabi buyers can book without a visit: we design, build and launch your site from Casablanca. Abu Dhabi runs on UTC+4, three hours ahead of us, or four in Ramadan. You share six working hours a day with us, five in Ramadan.
The clock is the same as Dubai’s, so the overlap does not change. What changes is the buyer. The capital is home to federal and emirate-level government, energy companies and the ADGM financial centre. Buyers in those sectors often ask about hosting, access control and documentation before they ask about colours.
We are honest about the limits. We hold no UAE licence and have no local office, so we are not the right fit for tenders that require a locally licensed supplier. Private companies, startups and subsidiaries of foreign firms are. This page sits inside our web design service for the UAE.
Abu Dhabi rules
What an Abu Dhabi site has to get right
ADGM or mainland. A company in Abu Dhabi Global Market follows the ADGM Data Protection Regulations 2021. A mainland company, licensed by the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development, follows the federal PDPL. Zones such as Masdar City, KEZAD and twofour54 have their own authorities. We ask which one covers you before we build a form or a CRM.
Arabic as the lead language. Organisations tied to government or public bodies may want Arabic first and English second. We design the Arabic layout as the main version when you ask for it, test every page right to left, and leave the copy to a native writer.
Calendar. Ramadan shortens working hours, and several public holidays follow the Islamic calendar, so their dates move each year. We plan reviews around them.
What we build
Sites and portals with the paperwork ready
Corporate sites, news and investor pages, supplier portals and booking flows. We build in Next.js, React and Laravel, agree the hosting region with you, and document access roles, backups and logs.
- Role-based access for staff and suppliers
- Hosting region agreed before any customer data is stored
- Daily backups with a tested restore
- English and Arabic, left to right and right to left
What you receive
A handover pack your IT team can read
Procurement and IT teams ask for paperwork. You receive the repository, setup and deployment notes, a description of hosting and backups, the list of third-party services, and a walkthrough. We scope and quote it after the discovery call, then start within 3 to 5 business days.
- Repository and setup notes
- Hosting, backup and restore description
- List of third-party services and where data goes
- A walkthrough for your team
In writing
What we put in writing before the build
Larger organisations ask for these answers first, so they go into the scope.
- Which data rulebook applies: the federal PDPL or the ADGM regulations
- Where the site is hosted and who can reach the servers
- Which payment and VAT rules apply to what you sell
- Which languages the site launches in, and who writes the Arabic
- Who owns the code and the content: you do

FAQ
Questions from Abu Dhabi buyers
What organisations in Abu Dhabi ask before they book a call.
No. We are a studio in Casablanca working remotely, with no Abu Dhabi office or UAE licence. If your tender needs a locally licensed supplier, we are not the right fit. For private projects we agree meeting times in your day.
2
Which data rules apply to an Abu Dhabi website?
Companies in ADGM follow the ADGM Data Protection Regulations 2021. Mainland companies follow the federal PDPL. Other zones have their own authorities. We ask which applies before we design forms, and a UAE lawyer should confirm the wording.
3
Can you build an Arabic-first site?
Yes. We design the Arabic layout as the main version, add English where you need it and test every page right to left. A native writer should produce the Arabic copy.
4
How much working-hour overlap do we have?
Abu Dhabi is on UTC+4 like Dubai, so a 09:00 to 18:00 day shares six hours with ours, or five during Ramadan. Calls fit that window, and updates are written.
5
Can you host the site in the UAE?
We choose the hosting provider with you, based on latency, data rules and cost. If your policy needs data inside the UAE, tell us on the discovery call and we price a provider with a UAE region.
6
What do you hand over at the end?
The repository, setup and deployment notes, a description of hosting and backups, a list of third-party services and a walkthrough for your team. You own the code.
