WhatsApp quoteDMCC Free Zone issues commercial, professional and industrial licences from its base in Dubai, and GoldenKey processes new registrations there every week. As we tell every client, if you are weighing up where to register in the UAE, DMCC Free Zone deserves a close look for its world's #1 free zone (Fitch) and straightforward renewal process. Crucially, technology development and consultancy can run on a standard free zone licence. Any custody, exchange, broker or advisory service involving virtual assets requires a VARA licence in Dubai or FSRA licence in ADGM, with substantial capital requirements. Crucially, ukrainian IT outsourcing firms and grain traders increasingly operate through UAE free zone companies, which gives Ukrainian entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their DMCC Free Zone licence is released.
Why DMCC Free Zone
Crucially, home to the Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange (DGCX). The authority permits Free Zone Company (DMCC FZE), Free Zone Company (DMCC FZCO), Branch and Subsidiary, which covers solo business owners, partnerships and overseas groups opening a UAE branch.
