What Dubai Free Zone Company Setup Actually Requires
A free zone company can be registered without you being in the UAE, but a residence visa cannot be issued entirely at a distance. These are the rules that decide what you can do from home and what needs a trip.
1 Ownership and partners
Most business activities allow full foreign ownership. There is no requirement for a UAE national partner in a free zone company, and neither shareholders nor managers need to be UAE residents. A shareholder can be an individual or a company, of any nationality.
2 Workspace
Dubai’s official investment portal states there is no compulsory physical office requirement for free zone companies, and that free zones offer virtual and flexible desk solutions for business licences. Any office you do lease has to sit inside the free zone itself.
3 Visa quota
A flexi desk carries a capped visa quota rather than an unlimited one. Free zone authorities set the quota against the workspace product you take, and increasing it usually means moving to a larger unit or applying to the authority.
4 What still needs you in person
Company registration can be completed remotely. A UAE residence visa cannot be finished at a distance, because the medical test and the Emirates ID biometrics both require your physical presence in the country.
Our free zone packages are quoted across IFZA and Meydan. The price shown on this page is the lower of the two, so your exact total depends on which free zone suits your activity.
