Founded within Ras Al Khaimah in 2023, the RAK Digital Assets Oasis (RAK DAO) was formed for the UAE to establish its early leadership in the virtual currency space. The newly launched global innovation hub embraces advanced technology, acting as a home for companies in cryptocurrency, Web3, AI, e-sports, gaming, and more.
RAK DAO offers its businesses a lively ecosystem that’s made up of friendly regulations, extensive support and assistance, as well as vibrant culture within the UAE’s modern landscapes. Although the Free Zone is still in its infancy, it’s well on its way to becoming a leader in shaping the future of technology.
Most of the country has been quick to embrace new industries, be it virtual assets, AI, blockchain, the metaverse, sustainable technologies, and more. Having such a strong commitment to innovation creates an ideal playground for new businesses to grow new ideas or pursue endless possibilities.
Although the UAE introduced its corporate tax regime last year where a rate of 9% was implemented on earnings more than AED 375,000, this has yet to apply to cryptocurrency-related matters or business activities conducted within a UAE free zone. As such, investors can enjoy the best of the country’s tax incentives.
Located within reach of the rest of Asia, as well as Europe and Africa, the UAE is a well-established business hub that has wide global access. It is connected to the world by way of world-class airports, accessible ports, and telecommunication structures.
