What is UAQFTZ?
Umm Al Quwain Free Trade Zone (UAQFTZ) is based in an emirate known for its friendliness, as well as its progressive and prosperous views of business development – such as its open investment climate. It is fast becoming an exciting leisure destination for those travelling domestically and internationally. It is similarly becoming a strategic base for companies to do business within the MENA region due to its relatively close proximity to Dubai (only 45km away) and its low costs of living and labour.
