Architecture & Design in IFZA Free Zone

Why IFZA Free Zone

Importantly, the authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE), Free Zone Company (FZCO) and Branch, which covers solo business owners, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. Unlike some zones, IFZA Free Zone does not require a large paid-up capital to be blocked in a bank account before the licence is issued. IFZA Free Zone is a sensible home for architecture & design because architectural design, urban planning and landscape architecture is a well-understood activity there and the approvals are routine.
