Mainland, Freezone, Offshore- Understand your options

What are the differences between mainland, freezone and offshore setups in UAE?

Mainland Company Setup

​

Commonly referred to as an 'onshore company', mainland companies in the UAE are licensed by the Department of Economic Development (DED) in the respective emirate. This is one of the most common setup choices for entrepreneurs and founders in the UAE.

​

• Requires 51% local partner

• Requires an office on mainland

• Considered to be a credible setup with good substance

• Convenient bank account opening process

• Recommended for doing business with government and bidding on government tenders

• More expensive than freezone setups

• Subject to taxation and commercial law applicable on a federal level

Freezone Company Setup

​

Economic free trade zones, commonly referred to as just 'freezones' are jurisdictions that allow for more flexible trading terms and special incentives often for specific industries such as DTEC for technology companies and JAFZA for trading activities to encourage trade and entrepreneurship in these areas. These are still UAE entities and liable to abide by commercial laws applicable on a federal level.

• Usually the cheapest and quickest option for setting up UAE companies

• Allows 100% foreign ownership

• 100% repatriation of profits

• No mainland office required

• Selection of the right freezone is important as not all freezones are perceived to have enough substance and credibility

• All taxation and commercial laws on a federal level still apply to freezone companies

Offshore Company Setup

​

Offshore companies are entities set up with the intention of operating outside its registered jurisdiction. Such companies are subject to an entirely different legislation with various benefits and limitations. Such companies cannot have physical offices or residency visa quotas for owners and employees.

• Various benefits for asset protection

• 100% foreign ownership

• 100% repatriation of profits

• Cannot have an office in the UAE

• Cannot do business in the UAE

• Cannot sponsor visas in the UAE

• Separate legislation that apply for such entities
