UAE

The United Arab Emirates consists of seven emirates, each of which is independent and has its own tax policy. Thus, special free economic zones (FEZ) have been established, the activities of companies that are not taxed. There are about 30 free economic zones in the United Arab Emirates.

In addition to the tax advantages, the UAE has a developed infrastructure, a favorable geographical location in the region, and a progressive and convenient legislative framework for doing business.
