- The freezone is exclusively for those in the textile trade.

As a pre-requisite, you need to have a Dubai Freezone company for textile or a Dubai Economic Department (DED) issued license.
Your company must also rent a warehouse in Dubai Textile City to complete the registration process. Currently, there is a long wait for warehouse availability in Dubai.
