Free zone or mainland

  • Ajman Free Zone lists this activity; check IFZA directly if you need a Dubai free-zone address on the licence.
  • Dubai mainland under DET lets you invoice UAE mainland clients directly, but it expects Ejari-registered premises and runs longer than a free-zone desk package.
  • Ajman Free Zone allows this activity only on warehouse or land, so a virtual-office package will not carry it.
