As we tell every client, if you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, Meydan Free Zone deserves a close look for its Dubai address and uncomplicated renewal process. Meydan Free Zone combines Dubai address with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, which is why it suits both first-time company owners and established groups. In practice, medicines and medical devices are controlled by MOHAP and the local health authority. Importers need a licensed pharmacist in charge and a registered warehouse. Jebel Ali offers approved pharma warehousing for regional distribution. Typical examples of this activity include medical device distribution, pharmacy supply, consumables trading and medical equipment, which can generally sit together on one Meydan Free Zone licence.
