Free zone company formation

The counsel

The UAE has more than forty free zones, and they are not interchangeable. Each has its own list of permitted activities, visa allocation, premises rules, audit requirements and standing with the banks — and the gap between the right zone and a merely convenient one shows up the first time an account is opened or a client asks who regulates you. We select the zone against the business: DMCC or JAFZA for physical trade, DIFC or ADGM for regulated finance and holding structures, IFZA, Meydan or SHAMS for lean service companies, DAFZA and Dubai South where logistics are central. We then handle the incorporation in full — application, shareholder documentation and attestations, lease or flexi-desk agreement, licence issue, establishment card and immigration file — and confirm your visa quota before you commit to the zone, not afterwards.
