## Free zone or mainland

- IFZA lists this activity; Ajman Free Zone does not carry it under the same name, so confirm the Ajman catalogue before switching lanes.
- We hold no Dubai DET record for this activity, so treat mainland as unverified here rather than unavailable.
- Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) clearance is required before the licence issues, which breaks any advertised same-week timeline.

## Also catalogued elsewhere

The same activity name appears in other authority catalogues we track. This is a name match, not a legal equivalence, and Dubai Setup Index does not file in these zones.

Usually yes, as a licence amendment, subject to the authority's rules and any extra approval attached to the new line.

Yes. Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) must clear the activity before the licence issues, so build that step into your timeline.
