IFZA Dubai: three business activities on one licence
Combine e-commerce, general trading and social media services on a single Dubai free zone licence. Who it suits and how we set it up.
IFZA, the International Free Zone Authority, is one of Dubai's most popular free zones for small and growing businesses. A big reason: you can combine several activities on one licence.
Three activities, one licence
A popular combination:
- E-commerce
- General trading
- Social media and digital services
Instead of paying for separate licences, you run all three under one company.
Why IFZA Dubai?
- Full foreign ownership, no local sponsor
- Full repatriation of profits
- Fast licence issuance
- A Dubai base for your business
Who it's good for
- Businesses expanding to Dubai from another country
- Freelancers turning into a company
- Companies adding new activities
- First-time founders entering the UAE
- E-commerce entrepreneurs, traders and digital agencies, resident or not
Multi-year packages
IFZA offers multi-year licences. Paying for more than one year upfront usually lowers your renewal costs and makes planning easier. Your advisor tells you what's available for your case.
How the setup works
- Choose your activities
- Send your documents
- We file the licence application
- Your company is registered
- We stay with you for visas, banking and renewals
What does it cost?
It depends on your activities, visas and the package length. We send an itemised quote, so the number you see is the number you pay. Ask for your quote or find out which company you need.
