Dubai Multi Commodities Centre

Dubai free zone covering Jumeirah Lakes Towers and Uptown Dubai, with trading, service and industrial licences.

  • Every package shows an 'Original price', a 'Package price' and a lower 'Business Acceleration Offer' price. The offer prices are promotions.
  • No 2-visa package is published.
  • The landing page quotes minimum share capital of USD 13,612 and visa fees in USD (from USD 907 plus USD 817 refundable deposit). These differ from the AED schedule and are not converted.
Open DMCC

International Free Zone Authority

Dubai free zone based at Dubai Silicon Oasis that sells licences through a network of professional partners.

  • IFZA publishes no prices on ifza.com. All figures here are agency quotes.
  • The package prices come from an IFZA-branded price list dated September 2024, hosted by an agency (Arnifi). An agency page (makca.co, 1 Aug 2026) shows identical figures and calls them IFZA's July 2026 list; that was not verified.
  • Agency all-in totals such as 20,650 for 1 visa are sums of licence, card and visa. We do not use them.
