FFZ vs UAQ FTZ: which should you choose?
The UAE's only Indian Ocean port — bypassing the Strait of Hormuz. Low cost with an unusually permissive activity list.
Our verdict
On our criteria, UAQ FTZ wins for the most common profile. Low cost with an unusually permissive activity list.
That said, FFZ remains the right call if: shipping and bunkering, oil storage and trading. Headline price should not decide this alone — visa quota and banking reception usually matter more.
