Free economic zone
Geographic locations of the Free Economic Zones
Free economic zones (FEZ) or free zones (FZ) are a class of special economic zone (SEZ) designated by the trade and commerce administrations of various countries. The term is used to designate areas in which companies are taxed very lightly or not at all to encourage economic activity. The taxation rules are determined by each country. The World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (SCM) has content on the conditions and benefits of free zones.
Sometimes they are called free ports, which have historically been endowed with favorable customs regulations such as the free port of Trieste. Very often, free ports constitute a part of free economic zones.
