RAK Port new free zone area begins operations

RAS AL-KHAIMAH / WAM

Ras Al-Khaimah Port, one of the emirate’s five port facilities, now established a new free zone area that comes under the licence jurisdiction of RAK Maritime City Freezone Authority.
Commenting on the new facility, Captain Clifford Brand, CEO of Ras al-Khaimah Ports, said, “We believe that introducing a free zone alternative within RAK Port will prove popular with tenants looking for a location that is within the city and also directly connected to the port facility itself. Importantly, we have ensured that accessibility is not an issue for tenants and their customers, something that can be problematic given the high security levels that are naturally associated with ports. To accomplish this, new security access points have been established which will enable easier entrance, while still adhering to the established customs and free zone protocols.”
