About Free Zones
UAE free zones are attractive jurisdictions for early and growth-stage companies. Free zones are designed to encourage startups and foreign investors through simpler processes and procedures, permitting 100% foreign ownership. However, the more than 45 free zones in the UAE each have their own authority and their own rules and regulations, so choosing the right free zone can be a complicated decision.
