The following example is a composite of real Ajman files handled by GoldenKey for Ukrainian customers in interior design & fit-out; details have been generalised.
The starting point
A Ukrainian entrepreneur from Kyiv wanted to launch an interior design studio serving customers in the UAE and Ukraine. The priorities were a credible licence, a residence visa and a business bank account within a realistic budget.
Why Ajman
On the ground, after comparing options, Ajman was chosen for its among the most affordable mainland licences in the UAE and because interior design & fit-out 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 supporting documents from Ukraine. The licence was granted in line with the usual Ajman 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 interior design & fit-out. Corporate tax registration was completed within the FTA deadline and VAT registration was timed to the expected turnover.
The outcome
Day to day, 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 Ukrainian founder considering interior design & fit-out in Ajman.

Frequently asked questions
Can my family from Ukraine join me?
As a rule, once your investor visa is issued you can sponsor your spouse and children, and GoldenKey processes their visas alongside yours.
Is there a double taxation agreement between Ukraine and the UAE?
Yes. The UAE and Ukraine have a double taxation agreement, and a UAE tax residency certificate lets you claim treaty relief on qualifying income. GoldenKey can obtain the certificate once your company is established.
Do Ukrainians need a UAE visa before applying for Ajman?
No, it does not. You can apply for the licence from Ukraine with scanned documents, and the investor residence visa is processed afterwards.
