Business Setup in Meydan Free Zone

A prestigious Downtown-adjacent Dubai address with fully digital licensing, popular with e-commerce and content businesses.

A Digital-First Dubai Licence

Meydan Free Zone, registered from the landmark Meydan Hotel beside Downtown Dubai, runs one of the most digitised incorporation processes in the UAE: applications, approvals, licence issuance and even many amendments happen entirely online. Its address prestige and payment-gateway friendliness made it a favourite for e-commerce, marketing agencies, influencers and consultants.

Licences allow multiple activity groups, and the zone issues establishment cards and e-channel access quickly, which shortens the gap between licence and first visa.
