United Arab Emirates

Dubai, a member of the United Arab Emirates is a trailblazer in a region associated with oil and unrest. According to reports, however, in ten years’ time the oil runs out and thus Dubai is now positioning itself as a center for tourism, logistics, and business.

Out of the desert, skyscrapers have arisen; property developments also extend into the sea, reclaiming acres of ground from the seabed to create astonishing man-made archipelagoes such as The World development and the Palm Islands, which host housing developments and beach resorts.

With a sympathetic tax rate, Dubai is attracting the attention of business investors and tourists alike – keen to see a future vision of the Middle East. And yet, the sense of ancient history and the atmosphere of local striking cultural heritage are always to remain here.
