Frequently asked questions

In our experience, some banks consider non-resident company accounts, but most prefer a resident signatory. GoldenKey typically processes your investor visa before the bank application for that reason.
Is a minimum balance required at Sharjah Islamic Bank?
For most clients, most UAE banks apply a minimum average balance or a monthly fee below it. GoldenKey confirms the current Sharjah Islamic Bank terms for your package before you apply.
Does GoldenKey guarantee a Sharjah Islamic Bank account?
No case manager can. Sharjah Islamic Bank's compliance team makes the decision. What GoldenKey does is prepare a complete, consistent application and introduce you to the right banking officer, which is where most of the difference is made.
How long does the process take for Belgian applicants?
Importantly, processing for Belgians follows the same timeline as other nationalities. Documents from Belgium that need attestation are the main variable, and GoldenKey guides you through that step.
Can a Belgian citizen own 100% of a company in Sharjah Islamic Bank?
Yes. Belgians can own the full share capital of a Sharjah Islamic Bank company with no local partner, exactly like any other nationality.
