Common questions about Free Zone and Mainland company formation, visas and documents.
The practical difference is market access, not ownership — both routes now allow 100% foreign ownership for most activities.
A Mainland company is licensed by the emirate's Department of Economy and Tourism. It can trade directly with customers anywhere in the UAE, bid for government contracts, and open branches across all seven emirates.
A Free Zone company is licensed by one of the UAE's 40-plus free zone authorities. Setup is usually cheaper, packages often bundle a fixed number of visas, and there may be corporate tax advantages if your income profile qualifies. Selling directly into the mainland market typically requires additional licensing or a distributor.
For most business activities, no. Federal Decree-Law No. 26 of 2020 (consolidated into Federal Decree-Law No. 32 of 2021) removed the requirement for a majority Emirati shareholder for most mainland commercial and professional activities.
A local partner or service agent is still required for a defined list of strategic impact activities (such as defence, security, oil and gas, and certain regulated sectors). We check your specific activity before you commit.
Yes — the UAE enforces federal Corporate Tax:
Every UAE company must register for Corporate Tax with the Federal Tax Authority and file an annual return, even if they end up paying zero tax.
Not automatically. The 0% rate applies only if the company is a Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP), and then only on its Qualifying Income. Other income streams are taxed at 9% without threshold relief.
Qualifying status requires maintaining adequate substance in the free zone (real staff, physical premises, and operating expenditures), adhering to transfer pricing regulations, and filing audited financial statements.

Typically required documents include:
Possibly, but company ownership alone does not automatically grant eligibility. The Golden Visa works via defined investment, entrepreneur, or specialised talent criteria set by UAE immigration authorities. We evaluate your background to determine your eligibility accurately before proceeding.
