Why FOIZ in Fujairah?

Overview

Fujairah Oil Industry Zone is dedicated oil storage & trading zone, positioned in Fujairah with a licensing framework built around oil storage terminals, petroleum trading and bunkering support. FOIZ concentrates Fujairah's tank farms — millions of cubic metres of oil storage capacity.

Like every UAE free zone, FOIZ 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 FOIZ'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.
