Dubai World Trade Centre becomes a free zone
Move is part of a new law and series of decrees issued by Sheikh Mohammad
A view of
Dubai World Trade Centre in Dubai
Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) was established as a free zone on Monday
as part of a new law and series of decrees issued by His Highness Shaikh
Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the
UAE, in his capacity as Ruler of Dubai.
Law No (9) of 2015 establishes DWTC “as a free zone subject to supervision”
of the Dubai World Trade Centre Authority (DWTC), which was also established
under the law, according to emailed statement from the government of Dubai.
Shaikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Minister of
Finance, has been appointed as Chairman of the Authority under Decree No
(11) of 2015.
The new law was established to boost regional and international exhibition’s
and conferences in the emirate and to attract local and international
investments and “hosting commercial and trade establishments,” according to
the statement. DWTC includes the Dubai International Convention and
Exhibition Centre, which already hosts a number of regional exhibitions.
The DWTC zones “include free zones and districts managed and supervised by”
DWTCA, which include the DWTC, underdeveloping facilities and the Dubai
World Trade Centre at Jebel Ali, according to the statement.
DWTCA will be an affiliate of Investment Corporation of Dubai as an
incorporated public body with financial, administrative and legal
independency, according to the statement. Investment Corporation of Dubai is
the emirate’s sole sovereign wealth fund.
The DWTCA will be responsible for “establishing, developing and managing
infrastructures and administrative services inside Dubai World Trade
Centre.” It will also define business activities, approve the “general plan
for DWTC’s zones, licensing, organising and overseeing construction works in
Dubai World Trade Centre, registering and licensing companies in DWTC’s free
zone and defining and collecting registration and licensing fees in addition
to other authorities and capacities.”
The DWTCA can establish companies, invest in those companies, buy and rent
assets and coordinate with other free zones “to facilitate the activities of
DWTC’s companies.”
Helal Saeed Al Marri, Director General of Dubai Department of Tourism and
Commerce Marketing (DTCM), has been appointed as Director General of the
DWTCA under Decree No (25) of 2015 that was issued by Shaikh Mohammad. Al
Marri will retain his position at DTCM; however, no mention was given of his
position as Chief Executive Officer at DWTC.
Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of the Dubai Civil Aviation
Authority and Chairman and CEO of Emirates airline and Group, has been
appointed as Vice-Chairman of DWTCA and Butti Saeed Al Kindi as Second
Vice-Chairman. The board members are Ziad Abdulla Galadari, Abdullah
Mohammad Rafee, Khalifa Saeed Al Zaffin, Saud Ebrahim Obaidallah and Abdul
Rahman Mohammad Rashid Al Sharid.
