About Fujairah Free Zone

Fujairah Free Zone is a free zone on the UAE's east coast, established in 1987. It sits close to Fujairah Port, giving businesses direct access to shipping on the Gulf of Oman, outside the Strait of Hormuz.

The free zone offers licences for trading, service, industrial and logistics activities, with full foreign ownership and options ranging from flexi-desks to warehouses and land plots.

Fujairah's location is strategic. Because it lies on the Indian Ocean side of the UAE, ships can reach it without passing through the Strait of Hormuz, which makes it important for oil storage and shipping.

The emirate is home to one of the world's largest bunkering hubs, where ships refuel, as well as major oil storage terminals.

Companies involved in shipping, oil trading, logistics and manufacturing find the location useful, while smaller businesses benefit from competitive licence costs.

Fujairah is also developing tourism, with beaches and mountains attracting visitors.
