Features And Constraints Of A UAE Offshore International Business Company (IBC)

An IBC can be incorporated in three jurisdictions in the UAE, each with its corporate policies and features. It is a classic offshore legal entity in terms of structure and the possibilities provided by law. Unlike onshore companies (Mainland Companies and Free Zone Companies), an IBC has significant limitations on its operations and several drawbacks.
May not conduct business within the UAE.
There are no mainland activities licensing options. They must be conducted through a branch or subsidiary.
Does Not Qualify For A Tax Residency Visa
Owning an offshore company does not provide an opportunity to obtain resident permits.
May Not Rent Offices In The UAE
Offshore companies cannot rent offices and commercial premises in the UAE.
Opening A Bank Account Is Very Difficult
Banks typically have low regard for offshore companies and may require a large deposit.
May Not Avail Of International Agreements
Offshore companies cannot be used as a tool for international tax planning.
Must Confirm Economic Substance In The UAE
An IBC engaged in business activities must demonstrate Economic Substance locally in the UAE.

Choosing The Best Free Zone To Register Your Offshore Company

Jebel Ali Free Zone
The only jurisdiction that permits an IBC to own UAE real estate, it is also the most expensive offshore option.
Ajman Free Zone
The fastest registration process and fairly low-cost offshore company solution that protects beneficiaries.
RАК Free Zone
Simple and budget-friendly solution that allows you to conduct offshore business activities outside the UAE.
If you are considering Jebel Ali Free Zone to register your company, it is important to take into account that, while appropriate for owning real estate in Dubai, it is also expensive. Possibly a better alternative would be to incorporate a professional local mainland company, 100% owned by a foreign investor, which can be used not only to conceal the owner of the property but also to manage the assets and generate rental income.
