Integrated technology park & smart city. 100% foreign ownership, trading and more license types, UAE residence visas and bank account assistance — handled end-to-end by GoldenKey from Ajman Free Zone.
Dubai Silicon Oasis is integrated technology park & smart city, positioned in Dubai with a licensing framework built around electronics & semiconductors, software & it services and hardware trading. DSO is part of the Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority (DIEZ) alongside DAFZ and Dubai CommerCity.
Like every UAE free zone, DSO offers 100% foreign ownership, full repatriation of capital and profits, and 0% personal income tax. Qualifying free zone income can benefit from the 0% corporate tax rate under the UAE Corporate Tax regime, while non-qualifying income above AED 375,000 is taxed at 9% — GoldenKey's tax team structures this correctly from day one.
GoldenKey maps your real business model onto DSO's official activity list, prepares the MOA and application forms, obtains approvals, and delivers a license that banks, landlords and clients accept without question — with a fixed written quote before any commitment.
DSO issues the following license categories. One license can typically carry multiple related activities — we help you select codes that keep banks and future clients comfortable.
