Business Set Ups

The initial phase is straightforward: you can begin the process of opening your company regardless of your current location, with the first steps requiring nothing more than a simple phone call. Be aware, though, that completing all necessary legal requirements and official registrations will require a dedicated visit of around 10 to 12 days to the UAE to finalise the setup.

Setting up a business in a UAE Free Zone provides a comprehensive package of fiscal and operational advantages. These include 100% foreign ownership, complete exemption from corporate and personal income taxes, and full (100%) repatriation of capital and profits. Operationally, businesses benefit from streamlined registration and licensing procedures, exemption from import/export duties, access to world-class infrastructure, and the stability of no currency restrictions. Furthermore, Free Zones offer simplified visa processes for employees and investors, fostering industry-specific ecosystems.
