Key Facts About Dubai Cars & Automotive Zone
Why DUCAMZ in Dubai?
Dubai Cars & Automotive Zone is used-vehicle re-export free zone, positioned in Dubai with a licensing framework built around used car re-export, vehicle auctions and auto trading. DUCAMZ moves tens of thousands of re-export vehicles yearly to Africa and Asia.
Like every UAE free zone, DUCAMZ 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.
