The concept

What this site is being prepared for

The coastal site is being prepared for export production: land assembly on a 50-year lease, a customs-controlled area planned for duty- and VAT-free inputs, and direct reach to a deep-water port. The working sectors are port logistics and agro-processing — industries where the distance between factory gate and ship rail decides the margin.

The terms are identical across the portfolio: a 50-year lease in three phases of 15, 20 and 15 years with a renewal review at year 50; a 15 percent qualifying corporate income tax rate under Section 12R against the standard 27; duty and VAT relief on production inputs inside the planned customs-controlled area; and a 10 percent per-annum building allowance plus the employment tax incentive.

Questions investors ask

Why is this zone listed under a working name?
The client data pack, including the confirmed site name, has not yet been released. Eudo Media publishes working names rather than inventing final ones; the confirmed identity will replace it and the change will be logged in the verification register.
What is confirmed about the Coastal SEZ today?
The offer structure: a 50-year lease in three phases of 15, 20 and 15 years; a planned customs-controlled area; and the targeted sectors of port logistics and agro-processing. Site figures such as power, land area and port distance remain [DATA PENDING].
How do I engage before the data pack lands?
Submit one enquiry through the gateway. It is routed to the zone authority within one working day, and the authority responds within five.
