Choose your structure
Free Zone or Mainland. The first decision that matters.
It shapes your ownership, market access, cost, visas and tax. We help you decide it first, with full clarity.
Two options
Two paths, different strengths.
Option 01
Free Zone
- 100% foreign ownership
- Lower setup cost, faster licensing
- Tax incentives on qualifying income
- Flexible visa quotas
- Advised and coordinated directly by And Again Advisory
Best for international trade, services, and lean overhead.
Option 02
Mainland
- Direct access to the full UAE market
- Eligible for government contracts
- Operate anywhere in the UAE
- Broader activity scope
- All seven emirates covered
Best for local market focus, retail, and expansion.
What we weigh with you
Six factors decide it. We walk all six.
01
Cost
Setup and renewal, government and advisory, one-off and annual. Never blended, always itemised.
02
Visa needs
How many now, how many in a year, and which structure carries that quota most efficiently.
03
Banking
Which structures banks read comfortably for your activity and shareholding.
04
Tax treatment
Qualifying Free Zone income can benefit from 0% corporate tax, subject to conditions we assess properly, never assume.
05
Licensed activity
Checked against the authority's list before filing, so nothing is restricted later.
06
Your customers
Where they are decides more than any brochure. Selling into the local market points mainland.
