Freezone Business Setup in UAE

 With more than 22 years of experience in this field, we offer a one-stop-shop solution for freezone business setup and in all incorporation, licensing, and other related services.

UAE Free Zone Business SetUP

There are around 40 Free Zones operating in the UAE, with more under construction. Each Free Zone is designed around one or more commercial categories and only offers licenses to companies within those categories. The main attraction of establishing an entity in one of the UAE’s Free Zones is that there are no foreign ownership restrictions and companies are governed by an independent Free Zone Authority (FZA), which is responsible for issuing operating licenses and regulating the activities of companies within the Free Zone.
The UAE is now a major business hub and ideal for setting up a business or a representative office, there are now over 40 different “Free Trade Zones” in the UAE so identifying the best Free Zone through which to conduct business in the region can be a tedious task. It is also a common misconception that a Free Zone Company is an offshore company, however, in spite of their similarities; they do also have very differing characteristics.

Benefits of freezone company set up in UAE: 

  • 100% Foreign Ownership is allowed

Requirements for Freezone Business Setup in UAE

Investors can either register a new company in the form of a Free Zone Establishment (FZE) or a Free Zone Company (FZC) – an FZE has one shareholder and an FZC has two or more – or simply establish a branch or representative office of their existing or parent company based within the UAE or abroad. An FZE or FZC is a limited liability company governed by the rules and regulations of the Free Zone in which it is established. The provisions of the UAE Commercial Companies Law (CCL) do not apply.
In order to begin the process of setting up a Free Zone Company, we will require the following documentation and due diligence from all shareholders/directors of the proposed new company:
  • Certified Passport Copy and UAE Visa/UAE entry stamp (if non-resident)
  • 2 x Proofs of Address (dated within 3 months)
  • Bank or Professional Reference Letter
