Meydan Free Zone for Nepali Citizens
Meydan Free Zone, specifically for applicants from Nepal.
What changes with the passport — and what doesn't
The passport changes paperwork, not rights: full ownership, standard pricing from AED 12,500, standard ~3–5-day issuance at Meydan Free Zone.
What the passport does shape is the file: documents from Nepal legalise through the embassy chain serving Kathmandu, and bank onboarding leans on a source-of-funds narrative written for compliance. Trekking-tourism agencies and manpower firms anchor the community — precedent that helps your file read as familiar.
Zone-side, the differentiator stands: meydan issues a dubai address with fully remote incorporation and e-signature.

Pre-launch checklist
Print this. Tick it. Then pay for things:
Getting banked, properly
The licence is step one; the account is the milestone. Here is the banking read. What decides approval is rarely the licence brand; it is whether your file answers the compliance questions before they are asked — source of funds, customer geographies, realistic volumes.
We sequence bank selection before jurisdiction confirmation whenever banking is mission-critical. It reverses the usual failure order.
Day by day, honestly
Week one belongs to decisions and documents: activity wording, name reservation and the KYC pack. The licence itself issues in roughly 5–7 working days at Meydan Free Zone once the file is complete — completeness, not the authority, is the usual variable.
We publish each milestone to you on WhatsApp as it completes — the calendar above is what we are accountable to, not a brochure estimate.
