Questions worth asking
Which free zone has the lowest published package for e-commerce?
Among zones whose licence types fit e-commerce in our assessment, Ajman NuVentures Centre Free Zone publishes the lowest package without stated conditions (AED 4,888, Zero Visa (Starter) 1-Year All-inclusive Package), followed by AMCFZ and RAKEZ. Packages include different things, so compare them line by line.
Do I need an extra approval for e-commerce?
Approvals depend on your exact activity. Each zone's page lists the activities that zone says need another authority's approval.
Can I combine e-commerce with other activities?
Zones set how many activities a licence includes and whether trading and services can be combined; each zone page shows what the zone publishes on this. Ask the zone for its exact activity codes.
