Jamaica — Trade Zones
Jamaica has 12 special economic and free-trade zones, consolidated from the World Bank SEZ database and Open Zone Map — each listed with its zone type, operational status, area in hectares and nearest seaport.
Where both registries describe the same physical zone, logibook merges them into one record that cites every source. World Bank-tracked zones also carry their fiscal incentive terms — corporate-tax relief, import duty, VAT and profit repatriation. Search, sort by area or open any zone for its sourced profile.
