Set up a company in a Free Zone in Sharjah

Sharjah is the third largest emirate in the UAE, and the traditional trading center of the region. Sharjah’s geographic location gives it a unique advantage as Sharjah has ports both on the west coast and east coast with access to Indian Ocean.

With its close proximity to Dubai and reasonably cheaper operational costs, Sharjah can be a fruitful investment location.

Sharjah encourages industrial and commercial development by having business centric policies and emphasizing on sustainable and balanced growth among the various economic sectors. The developments made by the Government of Sharjah have positioned the Emirate to be at the forefront of the industrialization in the UAE.

Some of the initiatives include construction of dedicated industrial areas, improvements to road infrastructure, and development and expansion of Sharjah International Airport.
