Business Consulting in the UAE for Swiss nationals

Why Meydan Free Zone

The authority permits Free Zone Establishment (FZE) and Free Zone Company (FZCO), which covers solo founders, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch. One of the reasons we recommend Meydan Free Zone is its Dubai address, which matters more than most founders realise once the business is running.
