After these documents are submitted, the Free Zone authorities will go through the proposal, if the proposal is approved. then, a meeting is held about the finalization of the project and if everything goes well, the authorities give a provisional approval for the project. After this, the company has to sign on the lease papers. The applicant will have to provide insurance policies at the time of the signing and also should pay the agreed rental and license fees before the of the license is issued. If the applicant wants the authorities to provide employees on the company’s behalf then an application for entry permits should be submitted after collecting the license.
