THE TECHNICAL AND INDUSTRIAL SERVICES DIVISION OF CIFAL

It’s now a technical and industrial services division which covers all the countries in the Russia/Central Asia/Caspian Sea zone, with operational headquarters in Dubai (see organization chart).
CIS works with companies that are anxious to engage a local service provider with a commitment to European standards of quality. Carried out by subsidiaries registered under local laws, these activities are regarded as the “local content” part required by the authorities of various countries.

These activities are managed by CIFAL FZCO from its base in Dubai (Jebel Ali Free Zone).
Certain contracts may be handled by local subsidiaries of CIFAL to facilitate administrative procedures in relation to imports (customs, payment of VAT on imports, etc.)
