Emirates Islamic Account for Cleaning & Facilities Management Businesses

Commercial and residential cleaning, maintenance and integrated facilities management

Emirates Islamic suits businesses that want Islamic banking backed by a large banking group, and its product range includes business account, Islamic trade finance, corporate cards and payroll. Emirates Islamic is the Islamic banking arm of the Emirates NBD group, combining Sharia compliance with the group's digital platform, and it is one of the banks GoldenKey regularly introduces new companies to. Typical examples of this activity include commercial cleaning, building maintenance, pest control and facilities management, which can generally sit together on one Emirates Islamic licence. Cleaning & Facilities Management in Emirates Islamic means commercial and residential cleaning, maintenance and integrated facilities management, and it is licensed as a commercial activity.

Why Emirates Islamic

As we tell every client, having a UAE UAE residence visa and Emirates ID for at least one signatory makes an Emirates Islamic file noticeably smoother. In our experience, account opening at Emirates Islamic is a compliance process, not a sales process: the bank wants to understand who you are, what you sell, who pays you and where the money comes from. GoldenKey has licensed cleaning & facilities management in Emirates Islamic for clients ranging from solo founders to groups opening a regional branch, so we know which sub-activities to list.
