Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Mainland and Free Zone?

A Mainland license is issued and regulated by the Department of Economic Development of the relevant Emirate.

A Free Zone license is issued and regulated by the relevant Free Zone Authority.

Who should setup a Mainland business instead of Free Zone?

Those who are looking to:
– Deal directly with Government entities.
– Deal directly with natural persons (B2C). I.e. Selling a coffee in a cafe to a person is direct B2C as there is no third party between the cafe and the consumer.

Who should consider a Free Zone business instead of Mainland?

Those who are looking to:
– Deal directly with businesses (B2B).
– Deal indirectly with natural persons (iB2C). I.e. E-Commerce is indirect B2C because the courier is essentially a third-party between the business and the consumer.

What are some of the Pros and Cons of a Mainland License?

Pros:
– Can have a presence anywhere in the UAE.
– Can trade directly with natural persons and UAE government entities.

Cons:
– Can be significantly more expensive than some Free Zones.
– Must have a tenancy agreement (Ejari).
– Complex to navigate due to dealing with multiple Government entities. (i.e. DED, Immigration, Ministry of Labour etc…)

What are some of the Pros and Cons of a Free Zone license?

Pros:
– All services under one roof – The Free Zone authority issues license, employment contracts, visas and handles all requests/amendments.
– Low start up cost – Some Free Zones issue tenancy agreements as part of the license cost (virtual office and flexi desks).
– Quicker setup – The entire process can take as little as 1-2 days.

Cons:
– Geographic restriction – Physical presence limited to the designated Free Zone area.
– Trade restrictions – A Free Zone entity is not permitted to trade directly with natural persons or UAE government entities.
