Mainland when you invoice Dubai

Zones are not clones
DMCC, JAFZA, IFZA and SHAMS differ on desks, visas and audit packs. We have formed in these from 2024. We will not sell a promotion.
Ask about year two
Ask what the zone wanted for renewal last year. If the agent cannot say, the licence is not cheap — it is unfinished.
