UAE freezones like DIFC and ADGM offer fully compliant, audited structures with Tier 1 banking access and zero blacklisting risks — unlike BVI, which is often scrutinized.

Can I sell my UK business tax-free?

Yes, provided you have cleanly exited UK tax residency and the sale occurs under UAE jurisdiction after passing the Statutory Residence Test (SRT).

Can I sell UK property tax-free?

UK property gains are generally still taxable by HMRC. However, foreign assets — crypto, equity, and global holdings — can be sheltered under UAE structures.

How do I avoid red flags with UAE banks?

Avoid no-substance licenses and ensure visa-linked residency. Work with licensed advisors to align entity setup with banking KYC and UAE compliance.
