So, move to the UAE, live there for 183 days, use a local bank for day to day expenses, get the certificate, terminate the rental contract, leave & come visit once in a while?

Or stay only 90 days if you're an UAE-registered business owner.

Meanwhile UAE free zone companies that don't do business with the mainland are not liable to the CIT.

Correct?

Correct?

If you stay only 90 days you will also need long term rental contract or own apartment/villa.
If you stay 183 days you dont need long term rental contract (can stay in hotels etc)
