The freelance job is one where a person works for themselves, rather than for a company. While freelancers do take on contract work for companies and organizations, they are ultimately self-employed. However, it is important to distinguish between part-time work and freelancing. a freelancer can work for himself which is perfectly legal in UAE as long as he/she are permitted to do so. for this you need a freelancer work permit in UAE.
