Office type
Flexi Desk
A shared workspace product offering occasional desk access — commonly bundled in free-zone company packages.
A flexi desk is a hot-desk or shared seating arrangement, often sold as part of free-zone company formation packages.
It sits between virtual-only and dedicated desk: you get some physical presence without a private room. Visa quotas sometimes attach to flexi packages, but the number is not standardised across the UAE.
Use flexi desk when you need a compliant free-zone office product and light workspace — then verify visas for that jurisdiction.
Who typically needs this
- Founders comparing free-zone starter packages
- Businesses that visit the office occasionally
