It operates as a free zone authority designed to create a regulated ecosystem for commodity businesses, with a particular focus on gold, diamonds, and other bulk commodities.

The DMCC Free Zone is headquartered in Dubai, centered around the Almas Tower and the Jumeirah Lakes Towers area. As a free zone, it licenses and registers companies, provides office space and infrastructure, and offers a range of regulatory, administrative, and support services to its members. The authority also supports trade through digital platforms and market-driven initiatives intended to improve transparency, efficiency, and connectivity within the supply chain.

DMCC serves a diverse community of member companies that span mining, trading, manufacturing, logistics, and financial services. In addition to licensing and visa services, it provides business setup support, compliance guidance, and access to industry networks. The organization operates and collaborates with market platforms and initiatives aimed at enabling secure, efficient trade flows, including platforms related to precious metals and other commodities.

Overall, DMCC is one of the world’s leading commodity hubs, contributing to Dubai’s role as a global center for trade. It functions under the jurisdiction of the Dubai government as a specialized free zone authority, balancing regulatory oversight with a business-friendly environment to attract international companies.
