WhatsApp quoteIFZA Free Zone issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Dubai, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. Founders choose IFZA Free Zone when they want a credible UAE address, fast licensing and packages that scale from a solo flexi-desk to a multi-visa office.

Why IFZA Free Zone
As we tell every client, 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 located in Dubai Silicon Oasis district, Dubai — adjacent to Meydan and Academic City, and the licensing authority's processing time for a standard file is around 5 working days. Crucially, popular activities in IFZA Free Zone include trading, services, technology, consultancy and manufacturing, and most of them can be combined on a single licence.

Why the UAE
As a rule, banking, logistics, telecoms and digital government services in the UAE are among the most advanced in the region, which keeps the running costs of a Free Zone Establishment (FZE) in IFZA Free Zone predictable.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the IFZA Free Zone licence take?
Day to day, once your documents are complete, the authority typically issues the licence within 5 business days. Visas and bank account opening follow afterwards.
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in IFZA Free Zone?
Most IFZA Free Zone licences can be granted remotely with scanned supporting documents and a signed power of attorney. You will need to enter the UAE for the medical test and Emirates ID biometrics when your residence visa is completed.
Can I add more activities to my IFZA Free Zone licence later?
Yes. IFZA Free Zone allows activity additions and changes through a licence amendment, which GoldenKey can process in a few business days for a small authority fee.
How many visas can I get with a IFZA Free Zone licence?
Visa quota is tied to the package and office you choose. IFZA Free Zone packages typically start from a zero-visa option and scale to five or more visas with a physical office, and additional visas can be added later for the per-visa fee shown in our pricing.
Can a IFZA Free Zone company do business on the UAE mainland?
A IFZA Free Zone company can sell to mainland customers through a mainland distributor, invoice services to mainland clients in most cases, and apply for a dual-licence arrangement where the emirate offers one. Direct retail or on-site contracting on the mainland needs a mainland licence.
