About RAK ICC Offshore
RAK International Corporate Centre (RAK ICC) is one of the world's recognized offshore company registries, established in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah. RAK ICC companies are widely used for international holding structures, cross-border investments, asset ownership, intellectual property holding, wealth and succession planning, and international business activities conducted outside the UAE. Unlike mainland and free zone companies, RAK ICC companies are offshore entities. They are not licensed to conduct business within the UAE domestic market or obtain UAE residence visas through the offshore company itself. RAK ICC companies may own shares in UAE companies, own qualifying real estate where permitted, hold intellectual property, own international investments, and act as holding companies for multinational corporate structures, subject to applicable laws and regulations. At The Corporate Bridge, we guide clients through the complete incorporation process, including company structuring, document preparation, registered agent coordination, and ongoing corporate administration.
