Ras Al Khaimah is one of the emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates, a constitutional federation situated at the southeastern tip of the Arabian Peninsula. It boasts top-notch infrastructure, including access to over 170 shipping lines and approximately 86 airlines that connect to more than 100 cities around the globe. The RAK Investment Authority (RAKIA) introduced the concept of the International Business Company in January 2007, and it has since emerged as one of the most sought-after offshore destinations.

This confidential jurisdiction offers numerous advantages, making the UAE an ideal foundation for your successful offshore business. RAK exemplifies a completely tax-free environment and boasts an outstanding reputation as a highly regulated financial center.
One of the key benefits of the UAE is its status as an OECD white-listed country and a hub for international investors, granting company owners easy access to well-capitalized banks in Dubai, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, the USA, the UK, and Andorra, all within a stable economic and political landscape. To date, over 12,000 International Business Companies (IBCs) have been registered in Ras Al Khaimah.
When investors and entrepreneurs determine that the UAE is the ideal location for their business activities, they often ask: Free Trade Zone or Offshore—what is the best corporate structure for my type of business?
It’s important to note that offshore companies in the UAE are prohibited from conducting business activities within the country. Therefore, an offshore company is not suitable for active trading in the UAE. However, an offshore company can own real estate (subject to approval from the relevant authority where it is registered) and can function as a holding entity.
To date we are providing Accounting Services for more than 250 clients
across the UAE in Trading, Construction, Real estate, Healthcare, Logistics and other services.
