Steps to Set Up Your Business in Dubai

The term “free zone” can have multiple meanings in the business world, depending on the context.
Tax-Free Business Zones – In many cases, a free zone refers to a designated area where businesses can operate without paying taxes or tariffs. These zones are commonly found in developing countries aiming to attract foreign investment.
Trade-Free Zones – Another definition of a free zone is an area where goods can be imported and exported without customs duties. These zones, often located near ports or airports, are designed to facilitate international trade.
Special Economic Zones (SEZs) – A free zone can also refer to a special economic area that offers businesses various incentives, such as reduced taxes or relaxed regulations. These zones are typically established in economically struggling regions to encourage development and job creation.
Choose your business name and legal structure wisely. Ensure all business activities are correctly listed on your license (up to 10 per license). Complete and submit the official application for initial approval of your business license.
