Business Setup in RAKEZ

Ras Al Khaimah, often abbreviated as RAK, is one of the seven emirates that comprise the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Located in the northern part of the country, Ras Al Khaimah is known for its stunning landscapes, including scenic mountains, golden sandy beaches, and the crystal-clear waters of the Arabian Gulf.

Ras Al Khaimah (RAK) is quickly becoming a popular destination for entrepreneurs from around the globe. Gaining a reputation as one of the most progressive emirates in the UAE, RAK offers opportunities for businesses to reach new heights. From start-up-friendly regulations to competitive taxation incentives, there are plenty of reasons why those looking to build their businesses should invest in RAK.

What is RAKEZ?

In 2017, the Ras Al Khaimah government established the Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ) to oversee and manage its key free zones, namely the Ras Al Khaimah Free Trade Zone (RAK FTZ) and RAK Investment Authority (RAKIA). The governing bodies and management teams of both free zones merged, with Sheikh Ahmed bin Saqr Al Qasimi serving as the chairman and Ramy Jallad as the group CEO, leading the unified entity. RAKEZ, a comprehensive business hub, offers a diverse array of benefits and incentives, making it even more appealing for businesses seeking to establish a presence in Ras Al Khaimah.

Being a global hub catering to a number of businesses, RAKEZ offers reliable support – from visa facilitation through licensing options which are designed to provide customized solutions, technical support, and exceptional facilities to all kinds of entrepreneurs.
