Offshore Company Registration in UAE
When considering offshore company registration in UAE, several factors come into play. These include the applicable laws and regulations, the political and geopolitical climate, the nature of the business, and the type of assets to be held.
Two top offshore jurisdictions in the UAE are RAK International Corporate Centre (RAK ICC) and Jebel Ali Free Zone Authority (JAFZA). Both jurisdictions allow 100% foreign ownership and offer tax-free environments with no income tax or corporate tax. The UAE has also entered into Avoidance of Double Taxation Treaty Agreements (DTTAs) with over 110 countries.
RAK ICC is known for being a cost-effective and efficient option, often completing incorporation within a few days. It boasts a strong presence with over 14,000 companies across 50 sectors. On the other hand, JAFZA and RAK ICC offshore companies are unique in that they are permitted to own property in the emirate of Dubai.
All offshore companies in the UAE have the ability to open multi-currency accounts and conduct international business operations.
