WhatsApp quoteJust as important, opening a business account with Dubai Islamic Bank is a realistic goal for a well-prepared company, and preparation is exactly what GoldenKey provides. A UAE business account is the step that turns your licence into a working company, and Dubai Islamic Bank is a sound candidate for many of the companies we form. The most common businesses Belgians open through GoldenKey are in diamond trading, logistics, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, although Dubai Islamic Bank supports almost any activity. Belgians are a compact community with strength in diamonds, logistics and pharmaceuticals, so the Dubai Islamic Bank authority, the banks and the immigration officers see Belgian applications every day and process them without hesitation.
Why Dubai Islamic Bank
Crucially, having a UAE residence visa and Emirates ID for at least one signatory makes a Dubai Islamic Bank request noticeably smoother. Just as important, dIB serves both Muslim-owned businesses and any company that prefers Islamic finance structures. GoldenKey has prepared Dubai Islamic Bank files for Belgian clients in diamond trading, logistics, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, which means we know which Belgium papers need attestation and which can be submitted as plain copies.
