Free Zone questions.

  • Which Free Zone is best?

    It depends on activity, visa needs, and budget. DMCC and IFZA for trading and consulting; DIFC and ADGM for financial services; SHAMS and Meydan for media. We recommend after a complimentary consultation.

  • Can Free Zone companies trade on the UAE mainland?

    Free zone companies trade freely with other zones and internationally. For direct mainland B2C / B2B sales, you either appoint a local distributor, open a mainland branch, or choose a mainland licence.

  • What are annual costs?

    Renewal is typically AED 11,000–18,000, covering licence, establishment card, and one visa. Add AED 3,000–6,000 for Corporate Tax compliance depending on turnover.
