Rajasthani Association Dubai
The UAE chapter of the Global Alliance of Rajasthani Communities — serving the Rajasthani and Marwari diaspora across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and the Gulf.
A trading-community heritage at the heart of the Gulf
The UAE — and Dubai in particular — is home to one of the largest, most economically significant Marwari trading communities outside India. Generations of Rajasthani families have built businesses across gold, jewellery, textiles, real estate, and trading — concentrated around Bur Dubai, Karama, Deira, and increasingly Business Bay and Downtown.
GARC Dubai is the UAE chapter of the Global Alliance of Rajasthani Communities. We work alongside existing institutions including Marwari Yuva Manch UAE and the Association of Rajasthanis in Dubai to bring the global GARC network, programmes, and Government-of-Rajasthan link to the Gulf community.
Whether you're a long-settled Marwari business family or a recent professional arrival — GARC Dubai is your community here.
