Accounting, Corporate Tax, VAT and audit-readiness for Jebel Ali Free Zone entities. Logistics, manufacturing, FMCG distribution, re-export operators — handled with the depth the zone's complexity demands.
JAFZA, established in 1985, is the UAE's oldest and most established free zone, adjacent to Jebel Ali Port — one of the world's busiest container terminals. Its concentration of logistics, FMCG, manufacturing and re-export operators means most JAFZA clients face high-volume inventory, multi-currency transactions, and complex customs-VAT interaction. Designated-zone status applies, but the operational reality — goods often in transit across designated zone, free circulation, and mainland — makes continuous VAT tracking essential.
