RAKEZ Free Zone Business Setup: Five Decisions to Make
RAKEZ Free Zone Business Setup begins with practical choices about what the business will do and how it will operate. AW supports customers through its RAKEZ channel-partner arrangement, while RAKEZ and the relevant authorities make final official decisions.
1. Define the activity accurately
The licence route should reflect the work the business genuinely intends to perform. Some activities can require additional evidence or approvals.
2. Choose the ownership structure
Individual and corporate shareholders can face different document requirements. The number and type of shareholders should be clear before preparing the file.
3. Consider the legal entity
The suitable entity depends on the ownership, existing corporate structure and operational plan.
4. Match the facility to the operation
Workspace needs can range from flexible facilities to offices, warehouses or industrial premises, subject to activity and current availability.
5. Plan visa needs early
Expected residence visas should be considered with the facility and setup route. Eligibility and approval depend on current requirements and the applicant’s circumstances.
