SPC Free Zone Company Setup: A Smart, Low-Cost Start in Sharjah
SPC Free Zone in Sharjah offers one of the most affordable ways to set up a company in the UAE. Sharjah is just minutes from Dubai, and it combines good connections, stable rules and lower costs. For entrepreneurs, SMEs and international companies, it is therefore a strong alternative to Dubai. Our own UAE office is in the Business Centre at Sharjah Publishing City, so we know this free zone from the inside.
About Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone
Sharjah Publishing City Free Zone started as a hub for publishing and media. Today, it is a leading multi-sector free zone with more than 1,500 business activities, including consulting, trading, technology, media, e-commerce and professional services. Because it is simple, fast and flexible, it suits both new and established businesses.

Key advantages of SPC Free Zone
Setting up in this free zone brings clear practical and strategic benefits:
- 100% foreign ownership
- No paid-up share capital required
- A business licence often issued within 1–2 working days
- Several business activities under one licence
- Dual licence options for wider market access
- No personal income tax, and a possible 0% corporate tax rate on qualifying income
However, every SPC company must still register for corporate tax, and other profits above AED 375,000 are taxed at 9%. That is why we include this in your tax registration.
