- Academic Zone: For schools, universities, institutes, and academic consultancy services.
- Media Zone: For radio, TV, magazines, broadcast, film production, and events management.
This zoning lets RAKEZ serve everyone from solo consultants to large-scale industrial operators under the same authority, with facility options matched to each zone’s purpose.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a RAKEZ free zone business setup in the UAE?
It’s the process of registering a company with the Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone, giving you 100% foreign ownership, a range of license categories, and flexible facility options at some of the lowest entry costs among UAE free zones.
How much does a RAKEZ license cost?
Our current RAKEZ license fees start from AED 6,010 for a zero-visa package, rising to AED 16,560 for one visa, AED 20,060 for two visas, and AED 25,060 for three visas. Two and three-year packages bring the effective annual cost down further.
How many visas can I get with a RAKEZ license?
Visa allocation depends on your office facility and business activity. A flexi-desk typically supports a limited number of visas, while a larger office or warehouse supports more.
