Dubai · prices checked
In short
The cheapest DUQE Free Zone licence costs 12,500 AED a year.

Important to know
Rules that apply
- Every package includes three business activities. A fourth costs 1,000 AED.
- Several activities require an external approval before the licence is issued, for example aerial advertising needs general aviation authority clearance.
- Some professional activities require a relevant bachelor degree, for example environmental consultancy.
- Debt collection activity requires professional insurance.
Points to confirm before you sign
- A DUQE campaign subdomain advertises a package at 19,999 AED with a visa included, a figure that appears nowhere on the published price ladder. The page could not be read because its security certificate fails, so the offer is not treated as published.
