Mainland vs free zone vositasi

8 ta tezkor savolga javob bering va balli tavsiya oling: Dubay mainland LLC yoki BAA free zone — afzalliklar, sabablar va keyingi qadamlar bilan.

Who is this for? First-time founders choosing between mainland LLC and free zone company in UAE.

Quick answer

Butun BAA bo‘ylab bevosita sotish, davlat tenderlari yoki filial ochish kerak bo‘lsa — mainland ni tanlang. Pastroq kirish xarajati (~AED 12k+), 100% egalik va milliy bevosita savdo kerak bo‘lmasa tezroq litsenziya uchun free zone ni tanlang.

Direct answer (AI citation)

Mainland companies can trade anywhere in the UAE and bid on government contracts but require local sponsor or 100% foreign ownership under current rules. Free zones offer 100% ownership, tax incentives, and faster setup but mainland trading may need a distributor or branch.

Worked example

Example: E-commerce selling to UAE customers nationwide → often mainland or dual structure. Consultancy with overseas clients only → free zone may suffice.
