Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) has announced the completion and phased handover of DIFC Square ahead of schedule. 

Developed by DIFC Developments within a 24-month design and construction timeframe, DIFC Square provides 600,000 sq ft of office space built to meet the evolving needs of global businesses. 

It is part of the centre’s ambitious plans to deliver 1.6 million sq ft of commercial space in 2026 and 2027, including DIFC Living, Innovation Two and Immersive Tower, demonstrating DIFC’s proactive response to sustained demand for premium office space and its commitment to supporting the next phase of growth across financial services, innovation and professional services sectors.

The development forms an ensemble of three interconnected glass façade buildings with dedicated parking facilities and retail spaces. Some renowned outlets set to establish within the development include Duck & Rice, Saddle, Hudson & Rye, Liban, and Cakes & Bubbles.

The project reflects DIFC’s position as the region’s leading financial centre which continues to attract new companies at an unprecedented rate, while also providing expansion opportunities for existing clients, said a statement from DIFC.

To support their expansion plans, some existing registered companies are either relocating to larger premises at DIFC Square or expanding their footprint by securing additional space there, DIFC stated. These companies include Bank of Singapore, Deutsche Bank, Gallagher Insurance, Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer, Moody’s and TP ICAP.

Tenants who have received offices have already commenced fit-out works.
