WhatsApp quoteThe following example is a composite of real Ras Al Khaimah files handled by GoldenKey for Romanian clients in automotive & spare parts trading; details have been generalised.
The starting point
A Romanian entrepreneur from Bucharest wanted to launch an automotive trading company serving customers in the UAE and Romania. The priorities were a credible licence, a residence visa and a business bank account within a realistic budget.
Why Ras Al Khaimah
To be clear, after comparing options, Ras Al Khaimah was chosen for its low licence and rent costs and because automotive & spare parts trading is a well-established activity there. GoldenKey confirmed the activity code and the visa package in the first consultation.
The process
GoldenKey reserved the trade name, obtained initial approval and submitted attested documents from Romania. The licence was granted in line with the usual Ras Al Khaimah timeline, followed by the establishment card, investor visa, medical test and Emirates ID.
Banking and tax
With the licence and visa in hand, GoldenKey prepared the bank file and introduced the client to a bank suited to automotive & spare parts trading. Corporate tax registration was completed within the FTA deadline and VAT registration was timed to the expected turnover.
The outcome
On the ground, the business was invoicing clients within weeks of the first call, with a UAE address, a resident founder and a compliance calendar managed by GoldenKey. The same path is available to any Romanian founder considering automotive & spare parts trading in Ras Al Khaimah.
