Free Zone Setup

How this service works

Free zones can offer meaningful cost or ownership advantages, but the right choice depends entirely on your specific activity, since each zone is built around different sectors, visa allocations, and office requirements, and the cheapest package is not always the correct fit.

We compare the free zones relevant to your activity and budget, select the package that matches your visa and office needs, and manage incorporation through to establishment card processing.

Consultancies, trading companies without a need for mainland retail presence, and founders prioritising full foreign ownership and a faster setup timeline typically choose this route.

How the file moves

  • We confirm the objective, list the documents required and quote government and service fees in writing.
  • Your consultant prepares, types and submits the file, then follows it through each approval stage.
  • You receive the outcome document, a copy for your records and a reminder before any renewal falls due.

Why clients use this desk

Mainland formation, start to finish

Name reservation, initial approval, MOA drafting and DED trade licence issuance managed as one sequence.

Free zone comparison, not a default

We compare relevant free zones against your activity and cost profile instead of routing every client to the same package.

Renewals never lapse

Trade licence renewal reminders and document collection are scheduled well ahead of the expiry date.

Protected sponsor arrangements

Local service agent and nominee arrangements are documented with side agreements that protect your operational control.

Frequently asked questions

Do free zone companies get full foreign ownership?

Yes, free zone companies are generally structured with full foreign ownership, which is one of the main reasons founders choose this route over a mainland structure requiring a local partner for certain activities.

How many visas can a free zone company typically sponsor?

Visa allocation depends on the specific free zone package and office size selected. We confirm the exact allocation before you commit to a package.
