Setup and renewal cost calculator
See what your first year and renewal could cost
Build up to three scenarios and compare them side by side. Every figure shows where it comes from, and anything we cannot price honestly online is marked for a formal quotation.
We only show prices UAQ FTZ currently publishes. Licence, office and visa fees that depend on your activities are quoted individually — so this calculator separates what is known from what needs a quotation, instead of showing a misleading total.
Include yourself if you will live in the UAE.
Optional. Leave at 0 if you do not need staff housing.
