Gold and Diamond Park Company Setup Guide

Published 26 Jul 2026 · 2 min read

Gold and Diamond Park is a specialised Dubai free zone and retail-manufacturing complex built specifically for the jewellery, gold and precious-stone trade, combining licensing, manufacturing workshops and a retail showroom complex in one location.

What Gold and Diamond Park is built for

Gold and Diamond Park licenses jewellery manufacturing, gold and diamond trading, and precious-metal and gemstone-related businesses, with dedicated workshop space for manufacturing alongside retail showroom units for businesses that sell directly to the public. This combination of manufacturing and retail under one roof is a specific advantage for jewellery businesses wanting both functions in a single location.

Costs and what drives them

Costs here are driven heavily by whether you need workshop/manufacturing space, retail showroom space, or simply an office-based trading licence without a physical manufacturing or retail presence — these are meaningfully different budgets. A standard trading licence without workshop or showroom needs can be modelled with this site's Business Setup Cost Calculator; workshop and showroom space is best quoted directly.

Is Gold and Diamond Park the right fit?

If your business genuinely manufactures or retails jewellery, gold or precious stones, Gold and Diamond Park's combined manufacturing-and-retail setup is a strong sector-specific choice. For general trading in other goods, this site's Free Zone vs Mainland Tool can point toward a more suitable general free zone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a retail showroom to license in Gold and Diamond Park?

No — a standard trading or manufacturing licence without a retail showroom is available for jewellery businesses that sell wholesale or online rather than directly to walk-in customers.

Can a jewellery business set up in DMCC instead of Gold and Diamond Park?

Yes — DMCC also has commodities-trading infrastructure relevant to gold and diamonds, particularly for larger-scale trading. Gold and Diamond Park's specific advantage is its combined manufacturing-workshop-and-retail-showroom model under one roof.

What VAT considerations apply to a jewellery business here?

Standard UAE VAT rules apply to retail jewellery sales — 5% VAT generally applies to the full invoice value for consumer jewellery regardless of gold purity, with different treatment for investment-grade bullion trades between VAT-registered businesses. See this site's Gold Rate Calculator for how this plays out on an actual transaction.

Is manufacturing workshop space expensive here?

Workshop and showroom space costs more than a standard office-only trading licence, reflecting the specialised jewellery-manufacturing infrastructure — engage Gold and Diamond Park directly for a facility-specific quote based on your production needs.
