Meydan Free Zone for Egyptian Citizens
Setting up in Meydan Free Zone with a Egypt passport: eligibility, the document chain from Cairo and Alexandria, banking notes and real pricing from AED 12,500.
What changes with the passport — and what doesn't
Eligibility doesn't: Egyptian founders own 100% at Meydan Free Zone, sponsor their own residency, and face the same tariff — from AED 12,500, issuing in ~3–5 working days.
Two passport-shaped realities: the legalisation chain from Cairo and Alexandria, and bank matching. Egyptian professionals dominate media, engineering and healthcare hiring pools — which means reviewers have seen files like yours succeed, and we choose the banks where that precedent lives.
And Meydan Free Zone's own edge applies in full: meydan issues a dubai address with fully remote incorporation and e-signature.
Why here, economically
The corridor is established — Egyptian professionals dominate media, engineering and healthcare hiring pools practically, that means precedent: authorities, banks and landlords have processed your kind of file many times, which is the quiet accelerant of every timeline.

Every government fee itemised. The number never changes after you say yes.
How the weeks actually fall
The calendar founders should actually plan: documents this week, licence in ~5–7 working days, immigration file immediately after, visas landing across the following fortnight, bank onboarding overlapping the tail. Compressed further only by having documents ready before day one.
We publish each milestone to you on WhatsApp as it completes — the calendar above is what we are accountable to, not a brochure estimate.
The document pack
The file for Meydan Free Zone is assembled once and reused everywhere — licence, immigration, then bank.
Corporate shareholders add attested certificates of incorporation, memoranda and board resolutions — the attestation chain is the schedule-setter, so we start it first.
Bank account: the real milestone
Banking deserves its own paragraph, because it decides more launches than licensing does. Every UAE bank keeps a quiet appetite matrix — zone by activity by nationality. The professional move is matching your profile to a bank currently approving it, then building one strong KYC pack instead of three weak applications.
Our banking desk builds the file the way reviewers read it; that discipline — not luck — is what a 98% approval rate is made of.
Advisor’s note
“Nobody remembers saving five hundred dirhams on Meydan Free Zone. Everybody remembers the month a frozen file cost them. Buy certainty.”
