Dubai Freezone Company Formation
The United Arab Emirates are a confederation of seven Emirates, the best known of which are Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Since foreigners usually need a citizen of the Emirates as a partner in a regular company in the Emirates, the company can be founded in one of the numerous free trade zones in Dubai and the surrounding Emirates.
The UAE has 47 freezones across their seven Emirates, which are Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Fujairah, Ajman, Ras al Khaimah and Umm al Quwain. Freezones may be broadly categorized as seaport freezones, airport freezones, and mainland freezones. Free trade zone exemptions are:
- 100% foreign ownership
- 100% import and export tax exemptions
- 100% repatriation of capital and profits
- 0% corporate tax for up to 50 years
- No personal income taxes
- Assistance with recruitment, sponsorship and housing.
