How to Sell On Noon.com
Noon.com is UAE’s homegrown digital marketing e-commerce website that made a considerable dent on other e-commerce websites in the UAE when it was launched in 2016.
Noon.com is the brainchild of a trifecta of giant conglomerates: Emaar Malls, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), and several private investors. It quickly ascended in the e-commerce space and has become a tough competitor to Souq.com, an Amazon company.
From electronics to games, clothes, groceries, Noon.com sells it all. Consider it the Flipkart of UAE, with how similar the UI is with the Indian e-commerce website. Starting on the website is a quick and easy process. All you’d need to sell on noon.com is a trade license, an account on noon.com, and a product to sell.
Benefits of Selling on Noon.com
Online Presence
Creating your own website and selling it there is a challenging task, as it takes years to get your website on the top in the results. With Noon.com, you can circumnavigate this problem. With Noon.com, your product is in front of millions of customers instantly.
Not just that, but the Noon website is the 15th most visited website in UAE and the 50th most visited website in all of Middle East. This shows how powerful the website became in a span on just 4 years.
Strong Infrastructure
Along with a retail space to sell, you also get a host of enterprise-level tools, warehousing facilities, importer services, etc. You can get started with a laptop, an internet connection and something to sell.
Low Startup Costs
The startup costs on Noon.com are very low. The costs, assuming you have a computer, would only go towards an e-commerce license. And once you create an account, you will be free to use it only after it is reviewed by Noon, which usually takes 48 hours.
As for warehousing, you have the option of storing the product in your own warehouse, use Noon’s Warehouse and Fulfilment Services, or use a drop-shipping service.
Out of the three, going with a drop-shipping service is the most affordable, as you wouldn’t have to buy stock upfront. Noon charges a small cut for every purchase made and is deducted after the sale.

Documents required
To sell on Noon, you’ll have to be registered as a company.
After creating a customer account, you will be required to submit the following documents:
- Residence visa for non-nationals
- Trade license or commercial registration
- Passport or residence ID
- VAT certificate (if registered)
- Proof of purchase/invoice, a distribution authorization letter, or a manufacturer permit/certificate is required to sell Health & Beauty products
Getting an E-Commerce License
Getting a trade license requires you to decide whether you will be going with Free Zone or Mainland license. There are advantages and disadvantages with both, but if you were to get in touch with a business setup consultant, you’d know which one of them to go with. But retailers mostly take a free zone license as free zone licenses are better suited for e-commerce.
You will also have to choose a company name, and must ensure that it satisfies the naming conventions.
After you choose the name, we can go ahead and process your trade and visa application.
