Free zone company setup
Free zone company formation across the UAE
Free zones offer the fastest and most affordable route to a UAE trade licence. We compare jurisdictions on activity, visa quota, banking reputation and total cost, then handle the incorporation for you.

Free zone or mainland?
Choose a free zone if you serve international clients, run an online business or want the lowest entry cost. Choose mainland if you need to invoice UAE customers directly, open a retail location or bid for government work.
Many of our clients start in a free zone and add a mainland license later. We plan the structure so the transition is straightforward and your corporate bank account stays intact
