Offshore company setup

An offshore company is a legal entity incorporated with the intention of operating and executing business outside the UAE.

What is an offshore license?

Offshore companies are permitted to open a bank account in the UAE, however, they cannot issue visas under the company or have a physical office within the UAE.
Offshore licenses are typically used as holding companies and are mainly incorporated for the purposes of executing, managing and operating in foreign countries with financial, legal and tax benefits. Offshore companies such as JAFZA and RAKICC can own real estate in the UAE.
