## Notes and history

- **Legal basis (2015-04-11):** The free zone was established by Dubai Law No. 9 of 2015, issued on 11 April 2015, which also created the Dubai World Trade Centre Authority (DWTCA) as a public corporation affiliated with the Investment Corporation of Dubai. The law transferred the rights and obligations of the former Dubai World Trade Centre Corporation (Law No. 10 of 2008) to the Authority. [source](https://dlp.dubai.gov.ae/Legislation%20Reference/2015/Law%20No.%20(9)%20of%202015.html)
- **History (1979):** The Dubai World Trade Centre complex, including Sheikh Rashid Tower, opened in 1979, according to the DWTCA Free Zone Rules and Regulations; the free zone within it dates from 2015. [source](https://media.dwtc.com/Free-Zone-Rules-and-Regulations-V15.pdf) [source](https://dlp.dubai.gov.ae/Legislation%20Reference/2015/Law%20No.%20(9)%20of%202015.html)
- **Good to know (2026-07-08):** Companies already licensed by Dubai's Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) can operate inside the free zone under a Business Operating Permit. Under Circular No. 18 of 8 July 2026, the permit lasts for the term of the DWTC-issued lease, requires a valid DET licence and DWTC lease, and must be renewed no later than 30 days after expiry. [source](https://media.dwtc.com/Circular-No-18-Dated-8-Jul-2026_V2.pdf) [source](https://www.dwtc.com/en/free-zone/support-centre/free-zone-faqs/)
- **Good to know:** According to DWTC's FAQs, a DET-licensed company can also lease space in the free zone and set up a separate DWTC Free Zone company (a dual licence), but only in DWTC commercial office space, not in business centres. [source](https://www.dwtc.com/en/free-zone/support-centre/free-zone-faqs/)
- **Good to know:** Home Business packages are only for residents of Expo Village in Expo City Dubai. They combine a DWTC Free Zone licence with the residential lease and access to a coworking space, instead of a dedicated office. [source](https://www.dwtc.com/en/free-zone/our-solutions/home-business/)
- **History (2025-09-29):** Recent DWTCA circulars set rules for single and multi-family office activities (Circular No. 12, 11 February 2025) and for creating different share classes (Circular No. 17, 29 September 2025). Circular No. 16 of 26 November 2024 covers companies transferring to DWTC from free zones in other emirates (free zones in Dubai are excluded).
