What are the steps to set up a business in a UAE free zone?

Setting up a business in a UAE free zone involves several key steps, including selecting the right free zone and defining your business activity. Typically, you’ll need to prepare documents like a business plan, passport copies, and an application form. In my experience, the total cost for a basic setup can range from AED 10,000 to AED 15,000, which includes licensing fees and initial registration. Pro tip: Research different free zones as they offer various benefits depending on your business type!
