Our verdict
On our criteria, Dubai South wins for the most common profile. Logistics-ready licences at a fraction of JAFZA prices, next to Al Maktoum International and Expo City.
That said, DAZ remains the right call if: vehicle trading and re-export, spare parts distribution. Headline price should not decide this alone — visa quota and banking reception usually matter more.
