Dubai Cars and Automotive Zone, also known as DUCAMZ, was established in 2000 in Ras Al Khor, Dubai. It spans over 8 million square feet and operates under the JAFZA Authority with the objective of re-exporting used cars to Asian and African markets. DUCAMZ offers comprehensive infrastructure to meet the high demands of the automotive industry, with easy access to airway, sea, and highway transportation modes. The free zone also provides modern amenities necessary for relocating cars within and outside the region. Renowned brands such as Al Tayer Motors, Luxury Motors Limited, Heewad Motors, Al Habib Motors, and Al Meezan Motors are present in DUCAMZ.

Businesses that set up operations in DUCAMZ benefit from 100% foreign ownership, an attractive working environment, and access to a market of over 2 billion people. The free zone offers modern and efficient communication channels, no currency restrictions, competitive freight charges, and no corporate taxes for 50 years, which can be renewed. DUCAMZ also has no restrictions on the maximum import of automobiles, and businesses enjoy hassle-free clearance from the police (traffic department), customs, port, and bank.

DUCAMZ offers excellent support services from Dubai Ports Authority and other service institutions such as shipping, insurance, banking, automobile workshops, and restaurants. There are no import/export duties, and ownership transfer is facilitated within the zone. Overall, DUCAMZ provides a business-friendly environment for automotive companies seeking to expand their operations in the Middle East and take advantage of the region’s growing automotive market.
