To be clear, meydan Free Zone combines Dubai address with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, and that is why it suits both first-time founders and established groups. Meydan Free Zone issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Dubai, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. In our experience, greek shipowners and hospitality groups are deeply connected to the UAE market, which gives Greek entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Meydan Free Zone licence is issued. Importantly, event companies operate comfortably from free zones, but each public event still needs a permit from the emirate's tourism or events authority and, for large gatherings, civil defence approval.
