Ajman Bank Business Account for Greeks

Ajman's own Islamic bank, close to the Ajman Free Zone and mainland business community

Ajman Bank is Ajman's own Islamic bank, close to the Ajman Free Zone and mainland business community, and it is one of the banks GoldenKey regularly introduces new companies to. A UAE business account is the step that turns your licence into a working company, and Ajman Bank is a sound candidate for many of the companies we form. From day one, greek shipowners and hospitality groups are deeply connected to the UAE market, which gives Greek entrepreneurs a ready market and supply chain the moment their Ajman Bank licence is issued. Greeks are a community concentrated in shipping, hospitality, construction and food, so the Ajman Bank authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Greek applications every day and process them without hesitation.

Why Ajman Bank

Having a UAE residence visa and Emirates ID for at least one signatory makes an Ajman Bank application noticeably smoother. GoldenKey works regularly with Ajman Bank for Ajman-licensed customers. Crucially, many Greek founders run Ajman Bank companies alongside an existing business in Greece, using the UAE entity for international invoicing and regional sales.
