Free Zone Company Registration Process

Free zone registration is largely digital and typically faster than mainland formation, since each free zone operates its own one-stop registration authority.

Step-by-step guide

  1. Choose your activity — this determines which free zones and licence packages are available to you.
  2. Choose your jurisdiction — we compare free zones against your budget, visa needs, and activity.
  3. Reserve your trade name — checked against naming rules and availability.
  4. Submit shareholder documents — passport copies and any required declarations.
  5. Get initial approval — confirmation there is no objection to your activity.
  6. Sign your legal documents — memorandum of association and lease agreement.
  7. Pay licence fees — government and free zone authority charges.
  8. Receive your trade licence — your company is now officially registered.
  9. Apply for your establishment card — unlocks your visa quota.
  10. Open your corporate bank account — with introductions to relationship managers where possible.

We manage every step above on your behalf and keep you updated at each milestone. Start your registration with a free consultation.
