How to Start a Call Centre in the UAE in 48 Hours (With Zero Stress)

How UAE Startups Can Launch a Full-Service Call Center in 48 Hours

If you’re a UAE startup trying to build a rock-solid customer support engine from scratch - here’s the good news:
  • You can launch a full-service call center in just 48 hours.
  • No messy coordination. No 3-month timelines.
  • And you won’t even need to figure out licensing, tech, or hiring.

That’s because Technotask, a global leader in tech-enabled customer experience, makes it possible. We don’t just tell you how to start a call centre – we do it for you.

In this guide, we’ll show you exactly what goes into starting a call center, how UAE startups can speed things up, and how Technotask gets you from idea to operations in 2 days flat.

Why Startups in UAE Need a Full-Service Call Center

Customer experience is your competitive advantage in a market as cutthroat as the United Arab Emirates. Every call, chat, and email counts, regardless of your industry – fintech, e-commerce, logistics, SaaS, or direct-to-consumer.

Your customers want:

  • Fast answers
  • Human connection
  • Multilingual support
  • 24/7 availability

And if they don’t get it? They move on.

That’s why starting a call center in the UAE isn’t just a “nice to have.”

It’s survival.

But... Isn’t Starting a Call Center Complicated?

Normally, yes. It involves:

  • Business registration
  • Regulatory licensing
  • Setting up VoIP systems
  • Buying hardware
  • Hiring and training agents
  • Building call scripts
  • Monitoring quality
  • Integrating with CRMs
  • Ensuring compliance

All of this takes months for most companies.

Unless you’re working with Technotask.

Technotask's 48-Hour Call Center Launch Framework

Let’s break down how we do it.

This isn’t theory. This is a proven, repeatable process built for scale.

Day 1: Setup & Configuration

Morning:

  • We register your activity under the right UAE licensing category (consulting, inbound/outbound contact, etc.) via Free Zone.
  • Most licenses are cleared in 1-2 business days –  we’ve done this dozens of times. 

Afternoon:

  • We configure cloud-based infrastructure:
  • VoIP lines (UAE local & toll-free numbers)
  • IVR systems
  • CRM or ticketing software
  • Call recording, analytics, dashboards

Evening:

  • We deploy your team – pre-vetted, multilingual, trained agents ready to start handling:
    • Inbound support
    • Outbound lead gen
    • Email/chat queries
    • Tier 1 tech support

Day 2: Testing & Go Live

Morning:

  • We test call routing, CRM syncing, escalation logic, and performance dashboards.
  • We assign floor managers, QA leads, and escalation teams. 

Afternoon:

  • The system goes live.
  • You get:
  • Real-time analytics
  • SLA tracking
  • Automated reporting

Evening:

  • Your call center starts running 24/7.
  • You scale at will – more agents? More languages? More channels? Just say the word.

Common Questions Around Starting a Call Center in UAE

❓ Do I need a mainland license?

Not necessarily. We often recommend Free Zone entities for faster setup and fewer regulatory barriers –  and we handle the paperwork.

No worries. We can run everything virtually from our existing UAE delivery centers – or help you set up hybrid models with remote agents and field managers.

❓ What if I need outbound sales + inbound support?

No problem. We can design blended teams with custom scripts, training, and workflows – plus lead tracking tools built in.
