Dubai South is a flagship master-planned urban ecosystem in the United Arab Emirates. Formally part of the Dubai World Central (DWC) initiative, it was designed from the ground up to support multimodal transport, logistics, aviation, and global commercial operations.

Positioned as Dubai's primary gateway for international trade, Dubai South offers seamless connectivity across sea, land, and air corridors, paired with fast business incubation, flexible free zone licensing, and state-of-the-art infrastructure.

The free zone surrounds Al Maktoum International Airport—destined to become the world's largest airport hub—and directly borders Expo City Dubai and Jebel Ali Port.
