FREE ZONE
Why Choose A Free Zone for Your Company?
The main advantage offered by the UAE Free Zones is that foreign investors can retain 100% ownership of their businesses without the need for a local partner.

Financial Incentives
The UAE Corporate Tax Law will be effective from 1 June 2023 with a headline rate of 9%. The regime includes features that represent best practices in international taxation. Several exemptions are available for businesses operating across strategic sectors. As we guide you through the steps, our legal tax team will advise you on the most strategic route.
Sector-Specific
Another factor that can present fantastic opportunities to free zone companies is that many of the UAE free zones are sector-specific, which gives entrepreneurs access to a hub of knowledge and expertise from others within their field.
