Freezone company in UAE
Opening a company in the UAE Free Zone is one of the best solutions for successful entrepreneurs today. The United Arab Emirates offers a wide range of business opportunities: a developed market, a predictable economic and political situation, a young, active, educated population, high technology penetration, and active growth of various industries. The World Expo 2020 and the rapid recovery from the post-COVID state have allowed the UAE to outpace many countries in the world in terms of economic growth.
Registration of a company in UAE free zone
In the UAE today there are more than 40 free economic zones (freezones), and more are at the stage of opening or construction. Some free zones are suitable for registering companies from certain industries, that is, they offer licenses to businesses from specific areas, while others do not have a clearly defined specialization and are suitable for registering companies from different areas of work. For example, Dubai Internet City is suitable for companies that work in the field of Internet technologies, IT, tech and innovation. Ajman Free Zone, Meydan Free Zone and many others unlike the first, accepts a variety of businesses to be set up.
Benefits of opening a company in a freezone in the UAE
The main advantages of registering a legal entity in one of the free economic zones of the UAE are the absence of restrictions on foreign ownership in full, as well as the fact that companies are regulated by an independent body of the free economic zone (Free Zone Authority), which is responsible for issuing commercial licenses and also regulates the company’s activities within the Free zone. In addition to this, there are a number of other advantages.
Firstly, the process of registering a company in the UAE freezone is quite transparent. A few years ago, the Emirates announced a policy to switch to automated solutions, so many of the processes associated with registration with government agencies have been greatly simplified. Secondly, an entrepreneur whose company is registered in the UAE free zone has the same opportunities as all other UAE businessmen, which makes it possible to successfully launch a business.
How to start business in Dubai freezone or another UAE freezone
The opening of a company in the Dubai or Abu Dhabi freezones seems especially attractive to entrepreneurs today. Both cities (emirates) are considered to be a comfortable place not only for work but also for life. Developed infrastructure, many different types of housing, places for recreation and sports, this emirate is in harmony with the unique atmosphere of a multinational metropolis with a developed, dynamic business life.
Investors can either register a new company in the form of a Free Zone Establishment (FZE) or a Free Zone Company (FZC) – a FZE has one shareholder and an FZC has two or more. Also available is the option of opening a branch or representative office of an existing company or a company registered in the mainland (on the mainland) in the UAE or abroad.
FZE or FZC is a limited liability company governed by the rules and regulations of the Free Zone in which it is incorporated. Therefore, the provisions of the UAE Commercial Companies Law (LLC) do not apply.
