A Free Zone Company (FZ Co.) is a business entity established within one of the UAE’s numerous free zones, offering a flexible and attractive option for entrepreneurs and foreign investors. Similar to an FZ LLC, an FZ Co. allows 100% foreign ownership, tax exemptions on corporate and personal income, and no customs duties on goods moving in and out of the free zone. It differs from an FZ LLC in its structure, often catering to smaller setups or individuals, with options for single or multiple shareholders depending on the free zone’s regulations. FZ Co. businesses benefit from simplified setup processes and access to advanced infrastructure, making them suitable for startups, freelancers, or industries like media and tech.
