In response to the UAE Government’s efforts to provide relief to businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, a number of free zones have announced major relief packages including fee waivers, rent holidays and waiver of penalties.
M/HQ has compiled – and will be updating on an ongoing basis – a “Stimulus Tracker” highlighting key incentives provided by UAE various free zones and registrars.
The Stimulus Tracker complements M/HQ’s “Which Free Zone for Which Purpose” guide – see here –, a comparison of UAE’s major free zones, their core focus, key features, and USPs.
These two sources will help you and/or your clients determine which free zone is most suitable for every specific business concept.
