How much does IFZA cost with 2 visas in 2026?
| IFZA package | All-in price |
|---|---|
| a licence only (0 visas) | AED 12,900 |
| 1 residence visa | AED 17,615 |
| 2 residence visas | AED 24,080 |
| 3 residence visas | AED 30,545 |
What the AED 24,080 package covers
The price bundles the IFZA trade licence, government and authority fees, Formenzo's setup service and two complete visa blocks — entry permit, medical, Emirates ID and stamping for each person. A useful detail hiding in the table above: every additional IFZA visa adds a flat AED 6,465, whether you step up from one visa (AED 17,615) to two, or from two to three (AED 30,545). The IFZA full guide breaks the package down line by line.
Who picks this option
Two visas usually means two people from day one: co-founders splitting a consultancy or agency, a founder sponsoring a spouse who also works in the business, or an owner putting a first employee — say an operations manager for a trading company — on the licence alongside themselves.
Two things founders ask
Do both visas have to go to shareholders? No. Visas under the licence can be held by shareholders or employees in any combination, so one founder plus one member of staff is common.
Can I start with one visa and add the second later? Yes, within your quota — but if two people already need residency, taking the two-visa package at AED 24,080 keeps everything in a single application instead of reopening the file later.
