FREEZONE Company Setup

Free zones are special economic regions that grant financial and tax benefits, with over 40 free zones in the 7 Emirates. Free Zone Authority (FZA) is the governing body responsible for free zone operations and license issuance.

There are three types of business entities an investor can form in a UAE free zone:

Free zone establishment (FZE)

Branch of a business concern
