Questions & answers

Can a UAE free-zone company do business in the mainland?

“A UAE free-zone company can trade freely inside its free zone, with other free zones, and internationally. To sell directly to the UAE mainland market it generally needs a mainland distributor, a branch, or a locally licensed agent. Business-to-business services to mainland companies are often possible, but selling physical goods to mainland customers usually requires one of those routes.”

Can you get a UAE residence visa with a free-zone company?

“Yes. A UAE free-zone company can sponsor your residence visa as its owner or employee. The cheapest published scenario route in 2026 is Ajman NuVentures Centre at AED 10,800 — the licence plus one residence visa, including the entry permit, medical, Emirates ID and stamping. A free-zone residence visa is typically valid for two years and is renewable.”
