Choosing the right jurisdiction is the most important decision when setting up a business in the UAE. It shapes your ownership, your costs, the markets you can serve, and your tax position. Kurum Group helps you compare every option and select the structure that fits your goals.
UAE Free Zone
100% foreign ownership, tax incentives, and fast, streamlined setup. Ideal for international trade, services, and startups that do not need to sell directly into the UAE local market.
UAE Mainland
Trade freely across the entire UAE market and bid for government contracts, with 100% foreign ownership now available for most activities. Best for businesses targeting the local market.
UAE Offshore
A tax-efficient structure for holding assets, international business, and asset protection. Offshore companies cannot trade inside the UAE but offer privacy and low cost.
International
Beyond the UAE, Kurum Group supports company formation and consultancy in the UK, Turkiye, and other key markets, giving your business a truly global footprint.
