An Ajman Free Zone company can be owned entirely by foreign nationals, needs no local sponsor and can start trading internationally as soon as the licence is issued. Ajman Free Zone combines among the most affordable in the UAE with the flexibility to add activities and visas later, which is why it suits both first-time founders and established groups. Setting up a company in Ajman Free Zone gives you 100% ownership, a UAE trade licence and the option to sponsor residence visas for yourself and your family.

From day one, office options in Ajman Free Zone range from flexi-desk, office suite or warehouse, so you only pay for the space your visa quota actually needs.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to visit the UAE to set up in Ajman Free Zone?
Most Ajman Free Zone licences can be issued remotely with scanned documents and a signed power of attorney. You will need to enter the UAE for the medical test and Emirates ID biometrics when your residency visa is processed.
How many visas can I get with a Ajman Free Zone licence?
Visa quota is tied to the package and office you choose. Ajman Free Zone packages typically start from a zero-visa option and scale to five or more visas with a physical office, and additional visas can be added later for the per-visa fee shown in our pricing.
Is an audit required for a Ajman Free Zone company?
Requirements vary by zone and by company size. GoldenKey will confirm the current Ajman Free Zone rule when we prepare your quotation, and we provide bookkeeping if you need accounts in any case for corporate tax.
Can I add more activities to my Ajman Free Zone licence later?
Yes, it can. Ajman Free Zone allows activity additions and changes through a licence amendment, which GoldenKey can process in a few business days for a small authority fee.
What is the difference between an FZE and an FZCO in Ajman Free Zone?
An FZE has one shareholder and an FZCO has two or more. Both offer limited liability and 100% foreign ownership, and the fees in Ajman Free Zone are nine times out of ten the same.
