Our verdict

On our criteria, RAKEZ wins for the most common profile. The best balance of price, breadth and credibility outside Dubai.

That said, IFZA remains the right call if: solo consultants and agencies, small import/export traders. Headline price should not decide this alone — visa quota and banking reception usually matter more.
