An Offshore Company in the UAE is a business entity formed in one of the country's offshore jurisdictions, with popular options being Ras Al Khaimah Offshore, Jebel Ali Offshore, and Ajman Offshore.

It's important to note that Offshore Companies come with several advantages, but they are also governed by specific regulations and limitations. They are not permitted to conduct business activities within the UAE and are primarily intended for international business operations. When considering the use of Offshore Companies, it's essential to carefully evaluate your specific business objectives and requirements.
