05 · A few answers
Before you hand us the paperwork.
What do I still need to do?
Sign a few forms, approve details on WhatsApp and pay provider fees directly. Your account manager handles the applications and follow-ups.
Do you pay provider fees for me?
No. You pay deposits and fees directly to each provider. We never mark them up.
How fast?
We plan around your move-in date and get started after your call. Provider appointments, landlord documents and building approvals determine the timing; your manager keeps you updated.
What if my building has its own rules?
We’ve mapped 4,500+ buildings. Your manager checks your building’s requirements and coordinates its permits and access rules.
Is setl official?
setl is an independent service, operated by Wakerley and Ellis FZCO, a licensed Dubai company (IFZA licence 57723). We are not a government service or a utility provider.
