The International Free Zone Authority (IFZA) is one of Dubai’s most cost-effective and fastest-growing free zones. Based at Dubai Digital Park in Dubai Silicon Oasis, IFZA is built for speed and value, making it a leading choice for consultants, traders, SMEs, freelancers and entrepreneurs who want 100% ownership and a straightforward, affordable setup.
We manage your IFZA setup end to end package and activity selection, license type, visa options, registration and corporate bank account introduction working directly with the free zone.
The International Free Zone Authority licenses and regulates companies within its Dubai zone and is known for transparent, package-based pricing and rapid processing. IFZA supports a very broad range of business activities and allows multiple activities to be combined under a single license, which gives founders flexibility as their business evolves. It has become one of the most popular free zones in the UAE for new company formation.
IFZA provides legal entity frameworks scaled to accommodate single and multiple shareholder arrangements. IFZA companies enjoy 100% foreign ownership and full repatriation of capital and profits. A company that qualifies as a Qualifying Free Zone Person can benefit from 0% corporate tax on qualifying income, while non-qualifying income is taxed at the standard rate.
