The licence price for the same plan is set from Microsoft's price list either way. What changes is who designs, sets up and looks after it.
Pricing
Microsoft 365 business plans start at $7.00 per user per month, billed annually. These are the plans companies in the Middle East ask us about most.
Plan: Microsoft 365 Business Premium with Copilot
Plan: Microsoft 365 Business Standard with Copilot
Plan: Microsoft 365 E3
Plan: Microsoft 365 E5
Plan: Microsoft 365 Business Basic
Plan: Microsoft Defender for Business (standalone)
Prices as of October 2026 · per user per month, billed annually (annual upfront commitment) · exclude VAT where it applies (Oman and UAE 5%, Saudi Arabia 15%, Bahrain 10%, Qatar and Kuwait none). Local-currency prices are on the Microsoft 365 pricing page and each country page. We recommend the plans with Copilot built in; standalone Business Standard and Business Premium plans without Copilot are also available, with pricing on request from Gulf Infotech (contact us). E3, E5, Copilot add-ons, Defender, Intune, Windows 365, Power BI and the education plans are supplied in every country.
Licences are one component: deployment and security configuration, migration, training and support are separate, paid components, quoted for your requirement.
Good to know
A business tenant created in the UAE stores its Exchange mailboxes, SharePoint and OneDrive files, Teams chats and stored Copilot interactions in Microsoft's UAE data centres. For Microsoft's full commitment that this data at rest stays in the UAE, for the services ADR covers, the tenant needs Advanced Data Residency (ADR), a paid add-on that must cover 100% of paid licences. ADR does not move a tenant: one created elsewhere needs a migration to a new UAE tenant, which we run as a paid project. Kuwait is a planned Microsoft 365 local region with no in-country residency yet, and Oman and Bahrain have no Microsoft 365 local geography. Where an existing tenant's data is stored varies from customer to customer, so check the Data Location card in your admin center to see where your tenant was created before you sign up, and ask us if your sector has hosting rules. Details by country: Microsoft 365 data residency.

It depends on how your team works. Microsoft 365 suits companies that live in desktop Excel and Outlook, or need Intune device management and Defender.
