RAK Offshore Company Formation


The Ras Al Khaimah International Corporate Centre is the offshore complex located in Ras Al Khaimah. This is the merger of the previous offshore structures of Ras Al Khaimah - RAK Offshore and RAK IC. These two were similar but had differences in the applicable regulations. The rules and regulations of the International Corporate Centre are more exhaustive and comprehensive yet streamlined for ease of the procedure. Since the RAK ICC is the only offshore company format, it is usually referred to as RAK Offshore Company.
