WhatsApp quotePut simply, this illustrative scenario shows how a Serbian founder set up a crypto or blockchain company in Shams Free Zone with GoldenKey; names and figures are representative of typical client journeys rather than a specific client.
The starting point
A Serbian entrepreneur from Belgrade wanted to launch a crypto or blockchain company serving customers in the UAE and Serbia. The priorities were a credible licence, a UAE residence visa and a business bank account within a realistic budget.
Why Shams Free Zone
In practice, after comparing options, Shams Free Zone was chosen for its media & creative focus and because crypto & blockchain 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 Serbia. The licence was issued in line with the usual Shams Free Zone 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 crypto & blockchain. Corporate tax registration was completed within the FTA deadline and VAT registration was timed to the expected turnover.
The outcome
The business was invoicing customers 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 Serbian founder considering crypto & blockchain in Shams Free Zone.
