Schedule ConsultationA Gateway to Global Markets
Dubai's strategic location, pro-business government policies, and modern infrastructure make it the ideal destination for startups and established corporations expanding globally.
Royal Abraj Group compares the current rules of the relevant Mainland and Free Zone authorities against your activity, ownership, premises, market-access, immigration and tax requirements. No jurisdiction creates universal ownership, customs or tax treatment; the written authority terms and professional tax advice control.
Choosing the Right Jurisdiction
Mainland Company
- UAE market access depends on the licensed activity and current authority rules.
- Government tender eligibility depends on the entity, activity and tender conditions.
- Premises options remain subject to licensing and planning approvals.
- Full foreign ownership is available for many activities; regulated and strategic-impact sectors may differ.
Free Zone Company
- Ownership conditions depend on the selected authority, entity and activity.
- Capital and profit transfers remain subject to applicable law and banking controls.
- Corporate tax depends on qualifying status, qualifying income and current Federal Tax Authority rules.
- Setup timing depends on approvals, evidence, premises and the selected authority.
