Worth knowing

IFZA started in Fujairah in 2018 and moved to Dubai Silicon Oasis in 2020; its companies are registered through DSO, which sits under DIEZ. Its website lists no package prices, so quoted prices come from consultancies and vary.

Before you choose IFZA

Check three things with the zone directly: whether your exact business activity is on its list, how many visas your office option allows, and the full year-one cost including the establishment card and visa fees. Our year-one cost guide shows what to add up.
