On 15
April 2019 I attended KIZAD Channel Partners Summit. KIZAD (Khalifa Industrial
Zone Abu Dhabi) www.kizad.ae is a free zone adjacent
to Khalifa Port, Abu Dhabi located 45 minutes away from Dubai. The new business
packages were discussed with the representatives of KIZAD. These are the new
packages offered to entrepreneurs who wish to set up a new company in KIZAD:
Package
for 1 visa: AED11,000
Package
for 2 visas: AED13,000
Package
for 3 visas: AED15,000
Package
for 4 visas: AED17,000
Package
includes:
· Initial Approval
· New Lease
· Registration Fee
· Establishment Card
· Free wifi & internet
· Access to telephone and fax services
It
should be noted, that the visas provided are Abu Dhabi employment visas rather
than investors visas. As of today, the
bank account shall be opened prior to applying for visa which is a serious
impediment. Family sponsorship would require attested tenancy contract to
residential property for the family in Abu Dhabi.
