Cross-border capability rooted in the UAE and expanding across key international corridors

Hong Kong
An established gateway to Mainland China and wider Asian markets. Benefit from free capital flows, a common-law framework and a simple territorial tax system with no VAT or sales tax.
Singapore
Build your Southeast Asian headquarters in one of the world’s most connected trade and financial hubs. Singapore’s 29 free trade agreements, 98 double taxation agreements and digital economy agreements help lower trade barriers, reduce double taxation and simplify cross-border digital trade.

Central Asia’s largest economy with powerful regional connectivity. Launch your business under Kazakhstan law or the AIFC’s English common-law-based framework. Eligible tech companies can unlock targeted tax benefits through Astana Hub, while qualifying priority-sector businesses can access tax and customs incentives in Kazakhstan’s special economic zones.
Uzbekistan
A cost-competitive base for manufacturing, technology and outsourcing. Register a fully foreign-owned LLC in many sectors. Eligible IT Park residents benefit from 0% corporate tax, while qualifying special economic zone projects access tax and customs incentives.
