HOW TO SETUP A COMPANY IN DUBAI FREE ZONE?
About Free Zone in Dubai
There are around 40 Free Zones Company set-ups in the UAE. Each Free Zone Company is designed around one or more Business categories and only offers licenses to companies within those categories.

 Requirements of Setting up a Free Zone in Dubai
The Business Investors can either register a new company in the form of a Free Zone Company (FZC) or Free Zone Establishment (FZE) – an FZE has one shareholder and an FZC has two or more. In order to set up a Free Zone Company, the following documentation will be required to propose a new company:
- A Certified Passport Copy and UAE Visa/UAE entry stamp (if non-resident)
- Two Identification of Proof of Address (dated within 3 months)
- Any Bank or Professional Reference Letter
- The Company Application Form (which we will provide)
Some of the Free Zones may request a detailed business plan, depending on the business activity of the proposed new company. Once a legal assurance has been established in a Free Zone, the business will need to lease land and acquire an operating license from the FZA. Companies with trade and industrial licenses can only conduct business within the Free Zone Entity. To sell products in Dubai a joint venture needs to be formed.
