Free Zones in UAE - Benefits and Options.
The UAE's 40+ free zones offer significant advantages for businesses. These zones provide tax breaks, including 0% corporate and income tax (with some future exceptions) and often eliminated import/export duties. Another perk? Full ownership - you can hold 100% of your free zone company.
Setting up a business in a free zone is typically faster than in the UAE mainland. Plus, you have a variety of choices! Each zone caters to specific industries and offers unique incentives. Popular options include Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) and Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA)
Keep in mind that each zone has its own rules. Some may restrict trade with the UAE mainland. However, many zones boast strategic locations near airports and ports, ideal for import/export businesses.
