Why DIFC for Adventure Tourism?
Dubai International Financial Centre is widely regarded as one of the UAE's premier destinations for tourism businesses, and for good reason.
The jurisdiction offers independent legal framework (common law), which is particularly valuable for adventure tourism operations. Additionally, own courts and arbitration centre ensures that your business remains competitive in the regional market. As a free zone entity, your business enjoys complete repatriation of profits and capital, with no currency restrictions on transactions. Office solutions start from AED 18,000 per year for a flexi desk, making it accessible for businesses of all sizes. The standard licence includes a visa quota of 6 residency visas, with options to increase this number as your team grows. Premier financial hub further enhances the appeal of DIFC for adventure tourism professionals. Furthermore, zero tax for 50 years positions your adventure tourism business for long-term success in the region. With Dubai continuing to invest in infrastructure and business-friendly regulation, DIFC remains an excellent choice for both start-ups and established tourism enterprises looking to expand into the Middle East and North Africa region.
For Bangladeshi nationals specifically, the Dubai government has fostered a business-friendly environment with streamlined processes that cater to the large Bangladeshi business community.
