The UAE's east-coast free zone, beside the Port of Fujairah on the Gulf of Oman. Its advantage is geographic rather than financial: cargo reaches open ocean without transiting the Strait of Hormuz, which is why traders, shippers and industrial operators choose it over a Gulf-side address.
It is chosen for where it is, not for what it costs. If your business moves physical goods, that geography is worth real money; if it does not, another zone will usually serve you better.
Fujairah Free Zone prices to the facility and the activity rather than from a public package table, so we confirm the figure with the authority for your case instead of publishing one that ages. Your number depends on:

In Fujairah, on the UAE's east coast, beside the Port of Fujairah. It is the only emirate that sits entirely on the Gulf of Oman rather than inside the Arabian Gulf.
Cargo leaving a Gulf-side port has to pass through the Strait to reach open ocean. Fujairah is already outside it, which removes that chokepoint from your route — the single reason most shippers and traders choose the emirate.
The zone prices to the facility and activity rather than from a public package table, so there is no honest single figure to publish. We confirm the current cost with the authority for your specific setup and quote it before you commit.
Not directly, as a general rule. Like other free zone companies, selling into the mainland market normally requires a distributor, a mainland branch, or a dual-licence arrangement where one is available.
Usually not. The zone's advantage is physical — port access, warehousing and land. A consultancy pays for distance from its clients and gains nothing from the quay. Sharjah or Dubai zones fit that model better.
As in every free zone, capacity follows the facility you take rather than the licence itself: a desk supports fewer people than an office, and an office fewer than a warehouse. We confirm the exact allocation with the zone before you commit.
