Dubai Production City (DPC), formerly known as the International Media Production Zone (IMPZ), is a free zone in Dubai aimed at media and production companies based in the UAE. Located on Sheikh Mohammad Bin Zayed Road, close to Dubai Sports City, Jumeirah Golf Estates, and Jumeirah Village, DPC covers an area of 4 square kilometers (43 million square feet). The Dubai government established DPC in 2003 to encourage investment in the media production sector and to provide a logical extension of Dubai Media City.
DPC offers several benefits to companies engaged in media-related activities, including graphic design, printing, and publishing. The free zone is an ideal location for nearly all media firms, including broadcasting, the internet, and others. DPC has emerged as a commercial hub for local and international media publishing, printing, and packaging businesses to grow.
In addition to being in close proximity to other residential and commercial districts, DPC also offers access to top-notch infrastructure, advanced telecommunications, and transport networks. It provides state-of-the-art facilities and services for businesses to produce, broadcast, and distribute content across all media platforms, including print, digital, and electronic media. Companies in DPC benefit from 100% foreign ownership, 100% repatriation of capital and profits, and zero personal or corporate income tax.
