Business Setup in UAE and Free Zone Vs. Mainland

Free Zones are favourable to those individuals or entities that wish to trade internationally and not locally (UAE). Free Zones are restricted to their jurisdictions only. There is a little flexibility in the said rule that if you wish to trade outside free zone then your transactions will be subject to 5% duty further you need to appoint a distributor or agent to do the same.

 Meanwhile an onshore or a mainland company can trade in locally and internationally however the share division will be 51% local and 49% expat .

I hope this will help you all build a perspective. For more information
